> Fiction Books > General Books

Clive Cussler plunges his irrepressible hero Dirk Pitt into a heart-pounding adventure . . .

A desperate call for help from a stricken archaeological expedition brings Dirk Pitt to a sacred well high in the Andes. What he discovers as he attempts to rescue two divers lost in its perilous depths leads him into deadly confrontation with a band of ruthless art-thieves, who plunder ancient sites for their precious artefacts.

Dirk Pitt's extraordinary adventures take him to the fabled Lost City of the Dead, lead him in search of a Spanish galleon washed miles inland by a giant tidal wave centuries before, and eventually set him on the trail of a fabulous hoard of Inca gold. But Pitt will need all his skills and tenacity simply to survive as he races to track down the sacred site - before the richest prize known to man is lost to the world forever . . .
