Congo [audio book]

Deep in the African rain forest, near the legendary ruins of the Lost City of Zinj, an expedition of eight American geologists are mysteriously and brutally killed in a matter of minutes. Ten thousand miles away, Karen Ross, the Congo Project Supervisor, watches a gruesome video transmission of the aftermath: a camp destroyed, tents crushed and torn, equipment scattered in the mud alongside dead bodies, all motionless except for one moving image, a grainy, dark, man-shaped blur.

Ten thousand miles away, at the Houston-based Earth Resources Technology Serves, Inc. supervisor Karen Ross watches a gruesome video transmission of that ill-fated team: a camp destroyed, tents crushed and torn, equipment scattered in the mud alongside bodies, and the grainy moving image of a dark, blurred shape. In San Francisco, primatologist, Peter Elliot works with Amy, a gorilla with a 620 "sign" vocabulary and a fondness for fingerpainting. Her recent drawing matches, with stunning accuracy, the frayed brittle pages of a Portuguese print dating back to 1642, a drawing of an ancient lost city. Immediately, a new expedition is sent to the Congo, descending into a secret world where the only way out may be through the grisliest death."@en

In San Francisco, primatologist Peter Elliot works with Amy, a gorilla with an extraordinary vocabulary of 620 "signs," the most ever learned by a primate and she likes to fingerpaint. But recently, her behavior has been erratic and her drawings match, with stunning accuracy, the brittle pages of a Portuguese print dating back to 1642, a drawing of an ancient lost city. A new expedition - along with Amy - is sent into the Congo where they enter a secret world, and the only way out may be through a horrifying death.-Back cover."
