Publisher's note

Stricken by guilt over his role in a fatal high-speed chase, Santa Fe police officer Dan Page discovers that his wife has gone missing and may be among a group of people at an abandoned military base in Texas where mysterious lights have been appearing in the sky. 50,000 first printing.

When a high-speed chase goes terribly wrong, Santa Fe police officer Dan Page watches in horror as a car and gas tanker explode into flames. Torn with guilt that he may be responsible, Page returns home to discover that his wife, Tori, has disappeared.

Frantic, Page follows her trail to Rostov, a remote town in Texas famous for a massive astronomical observatory, a long-abandoned military base, and unexplained nighttime phenomena that draw onlookers from every corner of the globe. Many of these gawkers--Tori among them--are "compelled" to visit this tiny community to witness the mysterious Rostov Lights.

Without warning, a gunman begins firing on the lights, screaming ""Go back to hell where you came from,"" then turns his rifle on the bystanders. A bloodbath ensues, and events quickly spiral out of control, setting the stage for even greater violence and death.

Page must solve the mystery of the Rostov Lights to save his wife. In the process, he learns that the decaying military base may not be abandoned at all, and that the government may have known about the lights for decades. Could these phenomena be more dangerous than anyone could have possibly imagined?

Annotation

Due to its inexplicable, naturally occurring nighttime light show Rostov, Texas, has become a sort of Mecca. Throngs of pilgrims arrive nightly. When his wife disappears, police officer Dan Page finds himself at Rostov just as a wave of violence sweeps through the crowd of visitors. In order to prevent more violence and protect his wife, Page must figure out what's really going on with these mysterious lights. His investigation will uncover conspiratorial details that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. This is another gripping read from bestselling author David Morrell.
