To stop him, Austin will have to work with Petrov. And he??ll have to find out fast how much trust he can offer an old nemesis in this thrilling adventure that ??goes down like a chilled Stolichnaya martini.? (… (more)

Numa Files #3

Awesome! ( )

4 sterren voor dit boek. Eindelijk weer eens een Cussler boek dat mij kon bekoren.

Het gezin van de laatste tsaar van Rusland wordt op brutale wijze vermoord. Een Russische miljardair is uit op de heerschappij over Rusland en de verzwakking van de Verenigde Staten. De diefstal van een Amerikaans onderzoeksonderzeeër, de moord op de bemanning van een ander onderzoeksschip. Het plan om methaanhydraat te gebruiken om tsunamis te laten ontstaan.

Dit en meer zijn de ingrediënten van dit spannende boek, waarbij zelfs het oudste slagschip van de wereld, USS Constitution, een rol in speelt.

Dit boek hield me vanaf het begin geboeid. ( )

In the heart of the old Soviet Union, a mining tycoon has proclaimed himself czar of Russia. Claiming Romanov ancestry and backed by billions, he is determined to overthrow the already shaky Russian government and U.S. opposition doesn't bother him. He knows that along the eastern seaboard lie pockets of an unstable compound known as "fire ice". Think of the impact if someone set them off outside a major city. ( )
