The Anomaly: A Novel of the Empty Quarter (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781506094311)

The Anomaly is an adventure tale that combines science fiction, the paranormal, ancient myths and Arabian oil in a dangerous quest for a lost city buried beneath the dunes of the Empty Quarter, the great sand sea of the Arabian Peninsula. Prof. Emily Goddard, a Middle East scholar from Princeton, heads a team of specialists sent to Arabia to investigate a bizarre "anomaly" found by petroleum geoscientists during a seismic survey. Some think the anomaly is actually a legendary lost city, buried beneath the sands by a colossal sandstorm in ancient times. Others think it is a living community of some kind, perhaps a "headquarters," hidden from the rest of the world. Prof. Goddard, daughter of an American oil worker who spent her childhood in Arabia, comes face-to-face with grim memories and unexplained mysteries from her past. In the process, she makes an amazing connection that changes her life forever.
