Quite an adventure, hidden 65 million years under stones!

Tom Broadbent, known form "The Codex" hears some shots while riding through the canyons. He discovers a dying man who entrusts him a diary full of numbers, demanding the promise to give it to his daughter Robbie. Without knowing who the man is, the police in his neck, a killer capturing his wife, Tom tries to do the right things along with his new friend, a former CIA agent while someone, far away, very much unknown and at the end of the foochain, makes the discovery of the century that changes the history of life and science.

Tyrannosaur Canyon´s a well researched thriller. The reader clearly notices Prestons background through his way of explaining complicated things in an easy way and building around that a thriller that knocks you off.
Having studied mathematics, biology, physics, anthropology, chemistry, geology and astronomy and his work at the American Museum of Natural History I can´t imagine someone better than him to write about fossils and dinosaurs.

Tyrannosaur Canyon deserves five stars !
