Seismologist Dr. Ella Jordan gets the news that strange signals are being received in the middle of the Pacific, which much too regular to be caused by anything in nature. They’re coming from the 10,000 meters deep Mariana Trench. Ella drops everything to join a team of researchers heading over there in the most advanced submarine in the world. Along with a Japanese crew, an attractive U.S. Marine officer, and a somewhat shady Swiss professor, Konrad Martin, Ella dives to the deepest spot on Earth and barely escapes disaster: They find a gigantic, perfectly round stone that reacts to their probing with a deadly heat ray. What hardly anyone knows is that hidden away in the mountains of Switzerland is an underground lab where scientists are working on a similar, though smaller ball of stone, found decades earlier next to the corpse of a geologist. Suddenly new signals are detected: first from the North Pole, then Russia, Australia, and the Antarctic. Ella and Konrad Martin find these same inexplicable stone shapes everywhere. When the stones’ signals start to be sent in unison, the resulting seismic waves are so strong that they cause earthquakes and volcanoes, and that’s just the beginning. A countdown to disaster begins, Ella recognizes the terrible truth. The threat does not come from this world.
