'Cussler is hard to beat' Daily Mail

The amazing second Dirk Pitt classic from multi-million-copy king of the adventure novel, Clive Cussler.

----------------------------------------

Major Dirk Pitt picked up the frantic distress call as he cruised his lumbering amphibious plane over the islands of the Aegean. Brady Air Force base was under fire, its entire force of jets destroyed on the ground . . . by just one First World War bi-plane!

A psychotic ex-Nazi, a bloodthirsty Greek strongman and a beautiful double agent set Pitt on the trail of the warped mastermind behind a devastating sabotage plot. And on that trail, danger and death are never far behind . . .

Reviews

The second book (but first published) in the Dirk Pitt series is just as good as the first. With a strong WWI and II focus, it is a fascinating read and a convoluted race against time which, every time you think you know what will happen, proves you wrong.

The characters are stronger this time and there are a couple of new main characters who have been introduced. Even the supporting characters have depth and are not wooden extras but an integral part of the story.
