Clive Cussler, "The Grand Master of Adventure," sends his intrepid
heroes Dirk Pitt and Al Giordino on their wildest, boldest mission into
the ancient world, unlocking extraordinary secrets and solving hideous
crimes. Another fabulous read from the most beloved series from the #1
New York Times-bestselling author.
The murders of a team of United Nations scientists in El Salvador. . . A
deadly collision in the waterways off the city of Detroit. . . An attack
by tomb raiders on an archaeological site along the banks of the Nile. .
. Is there a link between these violent events? The answer may lie in
the tale of an Egyptian princess forced to flee the armies of her father
three thousand years ago.
During what was supposed to be a routine investigation in South America,
NUMA Director Dirk Pitt finds himself embroiled in an international
mystery, one that will lead him across the world and which will threaten
everyone and everything he knows--most importantly, his own family. Pitt
travels to Scotland in search of answers about the spread of an unknown
disease and the shadowy bioremediation company that may be behind it.
Meanwhile, his son and daughter face a threat of their own when the
discoveries they have made in an Egyptian tomb put killers on their
trail. These seemingly unrelated riddles come together in a stunning
showdown on the rocky isles of Ireland, where only the Pitts can unravel
the secrets of an ancient enigma that could change the very future of
mankind.
