"[An] exotic, labyrinthine conspiracy tale . . . the perfect escapist adventure."--Washington Post

"The Fire expertly blends history, science, and myth. Katherine Neville is the undisputed queen of the international suspense genre."--Steve Berry, author of The Charlemagne Pursuit

"For fans of The Da Vinci Code and The Rule of Four, Neville's historical detective story . . . packs an epic wallop."--People StyleWatch
