Okay action thriller. A setup reminiscent of Hemingway's To Have and Have Not, with a sprinkling of Ian Fleming, a dash of Graham Greene and more than a basting of Micky Spillane. Nice exotic location and compelling underwater sequences. Plenty of action and gunfire, not all of it logically motivated. Characters nicely drawn, but overall tone a shade too grim for my tastes.

A treasure beyond believe, corrupted government officials, and modern day pirates. This book is pure adventure, page after page ( )

This is an exciting adventure novel. Definitely a 'guy' book. Reminds me of 'Call of the Wild'. ( )

Epigraph
Tiger! Tiger! burning bright
In the forests of the night. . .
In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
