X-Files Thrillers
Antibodies:
A novel based on the Emmy Award-winning television series created by Chris Carter.
When a disease-ravaged body is found in the smoldering ruins of the federally funded DyMar genetic research lab, Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully fear that a deadly, man-made plague is on the loose. As the FBI agents investigating the “X-Files” — cases the bureau has deemed unsolvable — Mulder and Scully pursue the truth wherever it leads, even into the labyrinthine corridors of the FBI… and beyond.
Racing to contain the lethal virus before it can spread, Mulder and Scully make a chilling discovery. Before his death, Dr. David Kennessy, a hotshot cancer researcher at DyMar, had been experimenting with a promising but highly dangerous technology: microscopic bio-machines that can cure any disease, heal any wound. In theory, this research could be a miracle cure, perhaps even a doorway to immortality. It was also the only way Dr. Kennessy could save his leukemia-stricken son.
But when a second corpse turns up, savagely mutilated from within, it’s anything but theoretical. Could machines created to cure have learned to kill? Scrambling for answers, Mulder and Scully are opposed at every step by faceless enemies with all the resources of the government — even perhaps of their own agency — at their command. Enemies who will stop at nothing to ensure that the secret of immortality falls in the right hands — their hands.
As sinister forces close in, Scully fights to save the life of an innocent boy while Mulder comes face to face with a crazed and desperate man. A man whose slightest touch brings agonizing death — and perhaps a resurrection more horrible still.
Ruins:
Normally the FBI would not assign a missing persons investigation to X-Files agents Mulder and Scully—who specialize in the paranormal, the supernatural… and possibly the extraterrestrial. But the disappearance of an American archaeologist and her entire team while exploring the lost Mayan city of Xitaclan raises too many questions for which there are no logical answers. Mulder believes this case involves ancient curses, blood rituals, and monsters older than history—while Scully seeks more rational explanations. But one truth is evident: they will not be alone among these haunted ruins. For a U.S. commando squad is being dispatched to somewhere beneath the great crumbling structures. And their mission is to seek out—and eliminate—a strange electronic signal that is sending an unknown message upward … to the stars.
Ground Zero:
Dr. Gregory, a renowned nuclear weapons researcher, is not only dead–he’s been charred to a radioactive cinder.
Since this is a death on Federal property, Mulder and Scully are hastily called in. As FBI agents who specialize in unexplained phenomena, they are the investigators of The X-Files, strange and inexplicable cases which are also mysteries that the FBI doesn’t want solved.
When a second victim, completely unrelated to nuclear science or Dr. Gregory is obliterated in the New Mexico desert, and then a third dies the same way in Washington, DC, Mulder and Scully begin to focus on the frightening dimension of their task. The bizarre deaths cannot be a coincidence. And as they work to uncover the secret unifying element that unites these deaths, it becomes clear that this twisted puzzle has fatal consequences for the entire world.
