Master techno-thriller writers Coonts and DeFelice have produced another nail-biter. Deep Black is a super-secret organization that operates out of the National Security Agency. All of the main characters from Deep Black: Biowar (reviewed in KLIATT in July 2005) are here: the head of Deep Black; three agents--fun-loving Tommy Cart, serious Charlie Dean, and cautious Leah DeFranchesca--plus eccentric eccentric, in mechanics, device for changing rotary to back-and-forth motion. A disk is mounted off center on a shaft. One flat, open, circular end of a rod fits around the edge of the disk; the other end is usually attached to a block that slides in a slot.  math genius Johnny Bibb bibb
