Sinossi
Per Juan Cabrillo e la sua Oregon ? all'apparenza un anonimo e dimesso mercantile, in realtà una nave sofisticata dotata dei più avanzati sistemi tecnologici ? l'incarico arriva da Oriente, e più precisamente da un consorzio di armatori giapponesi, preoccupati da un'ondata di pirateria che sta dilagando nel mar del Giappone.
A essere presi di mira non sono, come accade di solito, piccole navi e yacht turistici, ma enormi mercantili, che "spariscono" letteralmente insieme al carico e all'equipaggio. Pirati che hanno unito le forze? Una nuova centrale di terrorismo internazionale che ha trovato un modo di finanziarsi? Basta solo l'ipotesi di questo collegamento per spingere Cabrillo, che vive sul mare e per il mare, ad accettare la missione e a cominciare le indagini. Ma quando insieme al suo equipaggio di uomini e donne superaddestrati e pronti a tutto si confronta con il nemico, scopre che la posta in gioco è molto, molto più alta e che a muovere le fila di tutto sono figure davvero insospettabili.

Book 3 in the Oregon Files series published 2005. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. This remark is about to tell you just how long my memory is, as for me, this book felt like ‘Mission Impossible’ meets the ‘A Team’, a mission so impossible that only the A Team could succeed. People of my vintage will unders Leggi tutto
Another wonderful adventure of Clive Cussler's Juan Cabrillo series. I just love reading them. Unputdownable
I started reading this book and the first couple chapters my eyes glazed over and my mind numbed and I am thinking I can NOT read this book. Well I kept plugging along and it twas a good thing :) The story really developed into something strong. Great ending :)
Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the 'Oregon' are hired by the head of an Eastern consortium of ocean shippers to end the piracy that is going on. What the crew encounters beyond the piracy is even more disturbing, human trafficking. There is a bit more character development is this novel that in the p Leggi tutto
Dark Watch , one of the Oregon Files novels, is pretty much what you expect from the cover. Clive Cussler's books are a general type - adventure happens, horrible bad guys do horrible things, upstanding good guys (usually Juan Cabrillo and his crew) do good and risky things to stop them, a few capers Leggi tutto
Good stuff, very short.
4.5 stars, after the second book is questioning whether or not to continue the series, but so glad I did. Such a great story!
I think I am starting to like the Oregon books better than the original Pitt ones. I could totally see their adventures becoming a tv series. It contains a very good cast of characters and real life stories that people could connect to.
4.5 stars The start was fairly disjointed despite the multiple story threads but it ended up coming together very nicely in the end
This is the 3rd book of the Oregon Files series by Clive Cussler. With this book, he has changed his co-author from Craig Dirgo to Jack duBrul. While the first two books were good, this one was so much better. The writing style was stronger, the plot had more tension and there was significantly more Leggi tutto
