Sinopse

In his 17th novel, The Sky Is Falling, the master of fiction shows that his vigorous style, translated into hundreds of millions of copies sold worldwide, is even more refined. Sheldon tells the story of journalist Dana Evans who, back in Washington after a stint working in Sarajevo, struggles to establish a good relationship with the son she adopted in the region, a troubled twelve-year-old boy who lost his parents and sister during the Bosnian War. Upon returning to work, Dana interviews the young millionaire and likely Senate candidate, Gary Winthrop, who, the next day, is murdered in his home by art thieves. Everything suggests it was a common crime, but Dana suspects thieves who kill their victims and forget to take the most valuable works. She decides to investigate the case further. She soon discovers that, in recent months, five other members of the Winthrop family, one of the most generous, powerful, and famous in the world, have also died in fatal accidents. Certain there was more than just a coincidence, Dana decides to investigate the cases, despite everyone she interviews, including her superiors, disbelieving her suspicions. Dana travels to France, Germany, Italy, Russia, and even Alaska, searching for the true connection between the deaths. Unaware that by digging into forgotten facts from the past, she is putting her own life and the lives of her loved ones at risk, Dana begins to unravel the mystery. And she uncovers a plot of gigantic proportions that could jeopardize the safety of the entire planet. Sheldon's captivating plot is enriched by very real characters, who create varying levels of emotion and involvement in this unforgettable novel.
