      Book Overview

      Legendary oceanographer Dirk Pitt must work with his children to unravel old battle plans from WWII to prevent a present-day massacre in this novel in the #1 New York Times -bestselling adventure series. In the waning days of World War II, the Japanese tried a last desperate measure. Kept secret from all but a few select officials, two submarines were sent to the West Coast of the United States, their cargo a revolutionary new strain of biological virus, their mission to unleash hell. Neither sub made it to the designated target.But that does not mean they were lost. Someone knows about the subs and what they carried, knows too where they might be, and has an extraordinary plan in mind for the prize inside--a plan that could reshape America, and the world, as we know it. All that stands in the way are three people: a marine biologist named Summer, a marine engineer named Dirk . . . and their father, Dirk Pitt, the new head of NUMA. Pitt has faced devastating enemies before, has even teamed up with his children to track them down. But never before has he encountered such pure evil--until now.

      Dirk Does It Again!

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      Tom Clancy is right. A new book by Clive Cussler is like a visit from an old friend. The latest in the Dirk Pitt series was co-written by Clive's son Dirk, who is apparently poised to take over the reins. Dirk obviously grew up on Dirk Pitt, as his father penned his first novel next to Dirk's crib, and as such, he's the perfect man for the job. Additionally, he seems blessed with his father's talent. This book was only...

      The best Dirk Pitt thriller to date

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      Except for the few written with Craig Dirgo, Cussler thriller are always a blast. Put aside credulity, ignore the unbelievability of the characters and the strained plots and just enjoy. With the addition of Dirk Cussler, his son, to Clive's writing stable, things have dramatically - and for the better. This Dirk Pitt novel, which amusingly revolves around Dirk Pitt, Jr.(and his sister), is the best yet. The plot is...

      Bravo!! A story that would make Papa Clive Proud!

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      It is no surprise to a large percentage of Clive Cussler fans that Clive has been getting ready for semi-retirement for a few years now, and grooming his son to take his place as the new Grand Master of Adventure Fiction. I have to tell you, I was VERY skeptical that lightning could strike twice in the Cussler family. However, I must admit I was flat out W-R-O-N-G. I am also happy I was, too. As any typical Cussler story...
