Over the past few years, Clive Cussler's NUMA®
Files novels, written with Paul Kemprecos, have
become critical and fan favorites, each received
more enthusiastically than the last. About the most
recent triumph, Publishers Weekly wrote,
"Cussler's multitude of fans arrive at the
table expecting a roiling stew of seafaring adventure,
exotice travel destinations, cutting-edge science
[and] a splash of romance. In White Death,
they will find their expectations extravagantly
fulfilled!
And
they will find them fulfilled again in Lost City.
An enzyme that will dramatically prolong life has
been discovered two thousand feet down in the North
Atlantic, in an area known as "Lost City."
But why are the people attempting to harvest it getting
killed? Why are the scientists in a remote Greek laboratory
disappearing one by one? What does this all have to
do with a body found frozen in the ice high up in
the Alps? For Kurt Austin, leader of NUMA's Special
Assignments Team, and his colleague Joe Zavala, it's
clear they have their work cut out, but it may be
even bigger than they think - in fact, it may be their
greatest challenge ever...
Rich with all the hair-raising action and endless
imagination that have become Cussler's hallmarks,
Lost City is an exceptional thriller - on of
the best yet from "Clive the Mighty" (Kirkus
Reviews).
