When preservationist \u003cstrong\u003ePhillip Grant\u003c\/strong\u003e uncovers an anomalous ruin beneath the Baja Peninsula-one that defies carbon dating and material science-he is drawn into a search for origins that leads through \u003cstrong\u003eSavannah, Timbuktu, and the Colorado Delta\u003c\/strong\u003e. Joined by a circle of scientists and architects, Phillip follows a trail of evidence suggesting that civilization may have experienced periodic leaps of \"activation\" triggered by unknown forces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlending \u003cstrong\u003earchitectural mystery\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003especulative archaeology\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the \u003cstrong\u003emetaphysics of consciousness\u003c\/strong\u003e, Thomas D.
