The thrilling new adeventure from
the #1 New York Times- bestselling author.
Clive Cussler's tales of the Oregon
and its crew-"the clever, indefatigable Juan
Cabrillo and his merry band of tough, tech-savvy
fighting men and women" (Publishers Weekly)-have
made fans of hundreds of thousands of readers.
But the Oregon's sixth adventure is its most remarkable
one yet.
On December 7, 1941, five brothers
exploring a shaft on a small island off the coast
of Washington State make an extraordinary discovery,
only to be interrupted by news of Pearl Harbor.
In the present, Cabrillo, chasing the remnants
of a crashed satellite in the Argentine jungle,
stumbles upon a shocking revelation of his own.
His search to untangle the mystery leads him,
first, to that small island and its secret, and
then much farther back, to an ancient Chinese
expedition-and a curse that seems to have survived
for more than five hundred years. If Cabrillo's
team is successful in its quest, the reward could
be incalculable. If not . . . the only reward
is death.
