Summary of this Book...
The Pentagon holds many secrets, but none are more deadly than what is kept hidden beneath the basement in a cryogenic freeze. It has claws that could cut a man in half and an insatiable appetite for human flesh...and someone just woke it up.

After half a century of sleep, the beast is loose in the very heart of national security-making easy work of its prey. And tracking it through the catacombs of the fortress won't be easy, because this is no ordinary beast...it's a living weapon.
Further Comments...
I have mixed feelings about this book. I enjoyed the twists and turns as well as the different style of plot than the usual "creature feature" stories.

However..

The begining reminded me of the begining of <i>White Shark</i> by Peter Benchley with it's World War Two twist and all. Also I felt that security at the Pentagon couldn't be THAT weak. How could something not be found till now. The idea that the canister was "knocked loose" because of the 9/11 airliner carsh into the building was a nice touch. It could have been developed more however and still had kept dignity to the families.

This story is suitable for a quick fun read.
