A SEA OF TIME (2002) by Rob Frisbee. This book compares with the novels of Stephen Reilly and James Rollins with its nonstop, edge-of-your seat action and incredible premise. When a fossilized human skeleton is discovered with a modern day anachronism attached, a group of scientists are pulled together under the Gjerstad Protocol, humanity's contingency plan for dealing with extra-terrestrial First Contact. Among the scientists are a computer genius, a nun, two archeologists and an intuitive code-breaker. They have to figure out if this startling find is because of extra terrestrials, time-travel or both. They discover that much of their answers have to do with the biblical flood, an event that also has to do with humanity's future survival. The answers are surprising.
I had a hard time putting this book down. The characters are interesting, the situations fascinating and the outcome totally unpredictable. A SEA OF TIME is one of the more memorable time-travel novels I have read.
