The Effect on the Soul Richard C. Thuss

If you knew how to extinguish the souls of your enemies: What would you do? In The Effect On The Soul, State Trooper Kate Roche gets a terrifying glimpse into an answer to that question after she learns that Richard Handchild, a research physicist she loved in her youth is missing and wanted for murder. A Middle Eastern diplomat has secretly funded Richard?s chilling research into what happens the moment when we die, and excerpts from Richard?s journal have led the United States government to suspect both of them of nuclear terrorism. Kate?s desperate attempt to find and stop him leads her down a trail of violence and danger. And in trying to prevent a nuclear war, she too becomes one of the hunted.
