Flashpoint (Korman novel)

Galt states how Pierce decoded Olivia Cahill's Household Book, which tells how to create the antidote.

Meanwhile, in Guatemala, Amy drives like a NASCAR driver on a road meant for ox carts.

Jonah had called for an autograph session in order to ward of Pierce's goons, although he does not reveal this to Broderick, his father.

Pierce planned to rock several foreign cities with nuclear bombs, then take advantage of the chaos to become a dictator of the entire planet.

Meanwhile, on Jonah's jet over the Pacific Ocean en route to Cambodia, Amy reflects on her increasing side effects.

Meanwhile, the Pierce luxury jet stops on Midway Atoll, the site of one of the greatest battles of World War 2.

In Trilon Labs, Delaware, Nellie Gomez and Sammy Mourad have been exposed as imposters and are jailed in the building.

Sammy and Nellie discuss their ultimate goal: "to sterilize the test tubes", which is code for destroying Trilon Labs.

Finally, the Cahills arrive at Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia and the location of the country's largest airport.

Soon, they pass the village of Kampong Chhnang, and enter the Tonle Sap, the largest lake in Cambodia.

When Jonah sees a snake in a croc pen, Hamilton jumps in without a thought, nearly getting eaten by a crocodile.

Meanwhile, back at Angkor Wat, Ian Kabra discovers that April May, the hacker against Pony, is actually Cara Pierce.

However, while the Rosenblooms and the Cahills are hunting for Tonle Sap snakes, they discover that Galt and five thugs are chasing them.

Then, the groups escapes from Ta Keo, and points several Cambodian police in the direction of the temple.

Even though Nellie is almost discovered transporting nitroglycerin by Dr. Benoit, senior ranking scientist at the lab, she makes it to her destination- storeroom 117A.

The next morning, the Cahills try to get an early start on finding the Tonle Sap snake and extracting its venom.

Although Dan, who is the new leader of the Cahills, trusts her after she helped him, Amy is more stubborn and refuses to yield.

As the two groups clash, Jake yells out a command to stop, as a goon is holding Atticus underwater and trying to drown him.

But, a black Humvee with a masked rider roars up the road, and the Cahills enter the vehicle.

Suddenly, Ian discovers a Tonle Sap snake in his Gucci, which promptly bites him on his nose.

J. Rutherford Pierce had gone to the dark side somewhere along the line, and she reflected on how her father was looking at nuclear bomb triggers on one occasion.
