Someone was watching his every move, and they'll kill to keep it a secret.For the first time, Lynch is in a life or death situation he can't lie his way out of.

The Fixation of Atmospheric Nitrogen is a book written by Joseph Knox and first published in 1914. The book is a comprehensive study of the process of nitrogen fixation, which is the conversion of atmospheric nitrogen into a form that can be used by plants and animals. Knox explores the various methods of nitrogen fixation, including biological, chemical, and physical processes, and discusses the role of nitrogen in agriculture and industry. The book is divided into chapters that cover topics such as the history of nitrogen fixation, the chemistry of nitrogen, the biological fixation of nitrogen, and the industrial production of nitrogen. Knox provides detailed explanations of the scientific principles behind each method of nitrogen fixation, as well as examples of their practical applications.
