(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20060208/BORDERSLOGO ) About "The Eighth Day": As the book opens, a series of bizarre and seemingly unrelated home-grown terrorist attacks is plaguing the nation. A chemical engineer sets in motion a horrendous explosion killing hundreds of commuters and himself. Hollywood's hottest sex symbol assassinates a sitting Senator. An airplane full of Silicon Valley's brightest is blown up while refueling. Is this a series of random, deadly events or the unlikely start of an insidious new terror wave? When traditional law enforcement agencies fail to turn up any solid leads, the president turns to his science advisor, William "Wild Bill" Hiccock, to launch an independent investigation.
