In "a four-star page turner" (The Denver Post) from #1 New York
Times bestselling author Clive Cussler, Dirk Pitt discovers a trail
leading straight to priceless treasures. But it also thrusts him into
conflict that could tip the world's balance of power the wrong way...
Charts of lost gold...breathtaking art and rare volumes...maps of hidden
oil and mineral deposits that could change the world's balance of power.
Now Dirk Pitt discovers the secret trail of the treasures of
Alexandria--a trail that plunges him into a brutal conspiracy for total
domination of the globe. Zealots threaten to unseat the governments of
Egypt and Mexico, exposing America to invasion and economic collapse.
Suddenly, from East to West, anarchists reach their deadly tentacles
into the heart of the United States. And Dirk Pitt, the hard-hitting
hero of Clive Cussler's smash bestsellers Sahara and Inca Gold, is
up against the most feared assassin known to man. An international band
of terrorists is making its play for world power on the high seas--and
Pitt is the only man alive who can stop them!
In "a novel that features the greatest treasure hunt of all time"
(Publishers Weekly), "Cussler moves the players around the global
chessboard with a compelling clarity that keeps you captivated...And the
conclusion is gangbusters" (The Washington Post). Treasure is "an
ingenious roller-coaster of a story" (Daily News, New York).
