A RIVETING, DEATH-DEFYING DIRK PITT ADVENTURE!
1954: Vixen 03 is down. The plane, bound for the Pacific carrying
thirty-six Doomsday Bombs--canisters armed with quick-death germs of
unbelievable potency--vanishes. Vixen has in fact crashed into an
ice-covered lake in Colorado.
1988: Dirk Pitt, who heroically raised the Titanic, discovers the
wreckage of Vixen 03. But two deadly canisters are missing. They're in
the hands of a terrorist group. Their lethal mission: to sail a
battleship seventy-five miles up the Potomac and blast Washington, D.C.,
to kingdom come. Only Dirk can stop them.
