A real Cussler adventure. "Clive Cussler" again manages to become a part of the story for a few pages and rescue the heroes. A very hard to put down book and definitiely one you don't want to get into just before bedtime!

This is one of Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt novels--interestingly, Clive Cussler & his son wrote this book about Dirk Pitt & his son saving the world from a new biological virus in a lost Japaneses
WW II submarine that never made it to the US. It's a race with Pitt, his son, and a marine biologist named Summer against the enemy to find the sub and destroy the virus before the enemy finds the sub & unleashes it against the world. Very exciting!

This is a typical Clive Cussler book. In this story, he has taken a plot from WW II in which the Japanese were planning to launch a biological weapon on the United States. The plan goes awry and is lost for many decades. A power driven Korean discovers the plan and embarks upon a scheme to use this weapon to reunite the Koreas while striking a devastating blow upon the United States.

It is the task of Dirk Pitt Jr and Summer with some help from their father Dirk to foil the plot. They do it in the typical fast paced action style of Clive Cussler.

I am a Dirk Pitt fan, so this book was a must for me! It is a bit different in that his children take center stage here and Dirk Senior is left with a lesser role, but it has all the action and intrigue of the other books with a little more sensitivy and love of the younger generation.

Brings a breath of freshness back to the Pitt series which has been missing since "Atlantis Found."
