Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. From the #1 New York Times-bestselling Grand Master of Adventure Clive Cussler comes a breathtaking thriller that is the inspiration for the film of the same name starring Matthew McConaughey and Penelope Cruz. Egypt, 1996. Searching for a treasure on the Nile, Dirk Pitt thwarts the attempted assassination of a beautiful UN scientist who's investigating a disease that is driving thousands of North Africans into madness, cannibalism, and death. The suspected cause of the raging epidemic is vast, unprecedented pollution that threatens to extinguish all life in the world's seas. Racing to save the world from environmental catastrophe, Pitt and his team, equipped with an extraordinary, state-of-the-art yacht, run a gauntlet between a billionaire industrialist and a bloodthirsty West African tyrant. In the scorching desert, Pitt finds a gold mine manned by slaves and uncovers the truth behind two enduring mysteries--the fate of a Civil War ironclad and its secret connection with Lincoln's assassination, and the last flight of a long-lost female pilot. Now, amidst the blazing, shifting sands of the Sahara, Dirk Pitt will make a desperate stand--in a battle the world cannot afford to lose. With the mastery that has made each of his books a major bestseller, Cussler ties together the disappearance of a Confederate ironclad in 1865, a British aviatrix who vanished in 1931, and the 1995 mission of Dirk Pitt to find the remains of a pharaoh's funeral barge buried at the bottom of the Nile. The result is Pitt's most gripping and action-packed adventure ever. Maps. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
