Sinossi
Manca soltanto un ultimo collaudo. Ed è proprio in quel momento che un attentato sanguinario mette fine alla vita del progettista e distrugge il prototipo segreto del Sea Arrow, un nuovo modello di sottomarino, il più veloce, il più silenzioso e il più potente mezzo subacqueo che abbia mai solcato le acque. Se le cose fossero andate secondo i piani e il Sea Arrow fosse stato realizzato, l’America non avrebbe avuto rivali nel dominio dei mari. Ma l’innocente «gita di pesca» di copertura, che avrebbe permesso di mettere a punto le ultime mosse, si è misteriosamente conclusa in tragedia. Solo la Numa può intervenire per recuperare i resti del cabinato da pesca sul quale viaggiava il progettista, ma nemmeno Dirk Pitt e Al Giordino sono consapevoli dell’importanza dell’impresa che stanno per affrontare. Non tarderanno però a rendersene conto, costretti da subito a difendersi dall’attacco di uno spietato commando, pronto a tutto pur di recuperare quello che c’era a bordo. Ma qual era il segreto che si celava in quel cabinato? E come si collega il progetto del Sea Arrow alla scomparsa del sommergibile italiano Barbarigo avvenuta nel 1943 al largo dell’oceano Indiano? Affiancato da un’affascinante agente del NCIS, Pitt indaga, mentre i pericoli per lui e per i suoi uomini si moltiplicano e la soluzione del mistero sembra sempre più lontana…

Recensioni
Pretty good, the beginning was a bit slow, but it got better as the story progressed. You notice quickly that Cussler follows the same pattern in every book if you have read some of his books, but it works often even if one rarely gets surprised. But I do enjoy reading a Cussler book now and then.
I use to like Clive's books but lately they have become really hard to like. Dirk Pitt is his original character but this book had so many plot holes and stupid oversights that I just could not get into it. Dirk is sent to investigate the disappearance of a secret drive system. They of course find th Leggi tutto
Exciting and fun, even if I didn't understand all of it.
I have read all the Dirk Pitt novels and have really enjoyed them, until this one. Most of the novels catch your interested from the 2nd or 3rd page. Most have very well written and researched plots that are believable. The fun part was always the historical secondary plot that made the stories uniqu Leggi tutto
It's been a few years since I have read a Dirk Pitt novel. They're fun, but not too much deep, except for the diving :-) Beach reading. This one has a bit of Clancy's The Hunt for Red October, as the U.S. Navy is developing a superfast, super quiet submarine. A crazy Austrian steals the plans and th Leggi tutto
I know that Pitt is going to survive but Cussler's books are still a fun read.
Suspend belief and enjoy the ride!
More fun and excitement from the master of grand adventure Mr. Clive Cussler! Same shit, different day for Dirk Pitt! The US Government has developed the most advanced attack submarine in decades, capable of traveling at high speeds underwater. But when a key element of the prototype and the document Leggi tutto
This is my third book by Clive Cussler which I have read recently and so far the weakest. Either I was not in the mood at all or it lacked some unique magic that is in the other books of this author and which allows you to fully appreciate the total lack of probability of the whole story and enjoy e Leggi tutto
The elements of the Cussler style for the Dirk Pitt adventures are all here - the damsel in distress, events on opposite sides of th globe being linked, a huge build up to a quick finale, and a bit player named Clive Cussler. Add to this Dirk Pitt Jr (and his sister Summer) who follows in the grand
