Description
Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the Oregon find themselves exposed when a brilliant scientist blows their cover in the #1 New York Times–bestselling series by the grand master of adventure.
In 1902, the volcano Mt. Pelée erupts on the island of Martinique, wiping out an entire city of thirty thousand—and sinking a ship carrying a German scientist on the verge of an astonishing breakthrough. More than a century later, Juan Cabrillo will have to deal with that scientist’s legacy.
During a covert operation, Cabrillo and the crew meticulously fake the sinking of the Oregon—but when an unknown adversary tracks them down despite their planning and attempts to assassinate them, Cabrillo and his team struggle to fight back against an enemy who seems to be able to anticipate their every move. They discover that a traitorous American weapons designer has completed the German scientist’s work, and now wields extraordinary power, sending the Oregonon a race against time to stop an attack that could lead to one man ruling over the largest empire the world has ever known.
Reviews
Loved it.
5By Alex3.141Great book! Read them in order ;)Gets stupider
1By StoryDelverThe longer you read the dumber it gets. Had to stop. Couldn’t take one dumb coincidence after another.Another excellent book about the Oregon and her crew.
5By Sam DiBenedettoKind of fanciful but still exciting and fun to read. The technology is not explained very well which should be expected considering how unlikely it is. Excellent action with lots of bad guys. I can recommend this book.RMDan

1By DonPablo deRioVistaThat's it; the premise of this book is just plain stupid.Great to have Juan Cabrillo back!
4By WhareagleI'll miss du Brul but this is just as worthy.Cussler delivers again!
5By dgibson22Every time I read a book that was penned by Clive Cussler I'm never disappointed and Piranha was no different as the adventures of Juan Cabrillo and the Oregon continued with a threat straight out of science fiction but dealt with by military like force. With ups and downs and Cusslers ability to make you not want to put the book down it makes a fast and thrilling read. If you're up for an adventure this is the book for you!
