<DIV><B>A <I>New York Times</I>&ndash;bestselling thriller of medicine and murder by an Edgar Award&ndash;winning legend of suspense.</B><BR /><BR /> The Bingham Foundation is one of the most important scientific charities in the country, giving grants that can make or break a researcher&rsquo;s career. When they get a proposal that seems too good to be true, they send hardened investigator Samuel Todd to confirm that the science holds up. A cynical detective with a sixth sense for deception and a bad habit of committing adultery, Todd has never met a liar he couldn&rsquo;t crack. But he&rsquo;s never met anyone like T. G. Thorndecker.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> Thorndecker won the Nobel Prize in his thirties, and his work continues to push the outer limits of modern technology. After years of secret research, he claims to have made a breakthrough in the war against aging. When he requests a million-dollar grant from the Bingham Foundation, Todd goes to find out if he&rsquo;s on the level. As he digs into the demise of Thorndecker&rsquo;s first wife and late-night happenings in the lab, Todd comes face to face with a medical mystery that blurs the line between life and death.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> The author of the bestselling Edward X. Delaney series, called &ldquo;a master of suspense&rdquo; by the <I>Washington Post</I>, was one of the most popular thriller authors of the twentieth century. <I>The Sixth Commandment</I> shows that his work remains as irresistibly exciting as ever.<BR /> &#160;</DIV>
