Книга: Sidney Sheldon «The Doomsday Conspiracy»
When a mysterious weather balloon crashes to earth in the Swiss Alps, the head of the NSA picks Robert Bellamy to track down and identify the ten people who witnessed the event. Bellamy's obsession with covert assignments has already cost him the only woman he can ever love; now he believes he has nothing left to lose. But as he searches for clues from Rome to Budapest to Texas, the mission blows up in his face-ripping the lid off an incredible conspiracy that stretches around the globe and even into space. Alone and betrayed on every side, Bellamy is soon running for his life - with the key to the planet's very survival in his hands.
