Synopsis

THE BRAND-NEW ACTION-PACKED ADVENTURE IN THE DIRK PITT SERIES FROM NO 1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR CLIVE CUSSLER

The murder of UN scientists while investigating mysterious deaths in El Salvador . . .
A deadly collision in the Detroit river . . .
An attack on an archaeological site along the Nile . . .

While on a routine investigation in South America, NUMA Director Dirk Pitt finds himself caught up in solving the mystery of these cryptic and violent incidents.

When a new bioremediation company offers to help NUMA with the clean-up operation of a devastating oil spill it seems like the perfect solution, but he soon begins to suspect they have a much more sinister agenda. Could they be behind these events? And if so, why?

In his boldest and most daring adventure yet, follow Dirk around the world from the desert heat of Egypt to the rocky isles of Ireland on his quest to solve the mystery. But this time the stakes are even higher - the lives of his children are in serious danger.

The key to solving the mystery may lie in an ancient tale of an Egyptian princess - it seems that Pitt must look to the past in order to save the future.
