A glimpse of where the near future just might lead

Thomas McCollum's Palmer Lake is a disturbing novel offering a glimpse of where the near future just might lead. A wealthy man commits suicide, and his body is cryogenically preserved - but when some question of whether or not he was murdered arises, advances in cryogenic technology imply that he just might be revived to name his killer! Palmer Lake is truly compelling saga of lies, deceit, money, and power.

Riveting

Palmer Lake is a real page-turner. Author Thomas McCollum combines an extensive knowledge of cryonics with an imaginative and captivating plot. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down. Highly recommended for fans of suspense, mystery, thrillers...and anyone who loves a pulse-racing story

One Excellent Read!

This book grips you right from the beginning, with a tense scene that got me hooked before I had even flipped through the fist few pages. After that them mystery and suspense keeps building. It was one book that was hard to put down and easy to keep reading - in fact it was hard to do anything else BUT read it until I finally finished it. It is hard to classify this book. It has elements of mystery, sci-fi, and adventure. Love and suspense. Something for everyone and a book just about everyone is going to enjoy. A must-be book, as far as I'm concerned.
