Description

Juan Cabrillo and the Oregon crew's search for missing NASA technology leads to a globe-trotting adventure in this novel in the #1 New York Times-bestselling series. 

On December 7, 1941, five brothers exploring a shaft on a small island off the coast of Washington state make an exciting discovery, only to be interrupted by news of Pearl Harbor. In the present, Cabrillo, chasing the remnants of a crashed satellite in the Argentine jungle, makes a shocking discovery of his own. His search to untangle the mystery leads him first to that small island and its secret, and then much further back, to an ancient Chinese expedition, and a curse that seems to have survived for over five hundred years. If Cabrillo’s team is successful in its quest, the reward could be incalculable. If not...the only reward is death.

    It has been a long time since I have read a book. I have been enjoying Clive Cussler's books as audio books for some time. I purchased this book intending it to be audio but made a mistake that has turned into a huge enjoyment. The "Silent Sea" has brought me back to the enjoyment of reading. I could hardly turn off my iPad to do anything because I couldn't wait to read the next suspenseful page. I highly recommend this and all of Clive Cussler's books. And I encourage reading!

    While Cussler may not be a great author in the literary sense, his greatness resides in his ability to come up with scenarios that are intriguing and believable. His descriptions of dramatic action are taut and exciting enough to overcome any stylistic deficiencies most of the time, including this story. A very entertaining and satisfying read!

    I have followed Clive from Rase the Titanic way before the ship was found. This is great forget your problems reading. I wish I had meet Him before he found the civil war submarine the Hunley. I can feel the pages come to life and wash away my modern day problems. Lee Starnes USCG Ret.

    Took me a bit to get into it, but once I did it was very engaging. From the title I figured it was a sub book, but was pleasantly surprised to find an entirely different plot. I'd recommend this to anyone that likes military thrillers.

    Great book and creative. I recently started reading this series of Juan Cabrillo books and found it interesting and this one no less thrilling. I look forward to more of this series.

    Very easy reading and addictive. The geographical, physical, historical and political descriptions need a great more research. A lot of mistaken information regarding Argentina.
