A Dirk Pitt Adventure.

When a tsunami hit a Spanish Galleon, all trace of a golden hoard greater that that of any pharaohs vanished into history. Until NUMA agent Dirk Pitt dives into an ancient sacrificial pool far into the Andean jungle in order to rescue two archaeologists, and plunges into a vortex of corruption, betrayal and death. A sinister crime syndicate has traced the long-lost treasure-worth almost a billion dollars- from the Andes to the banks of a hidden underground river flowing beneath a Mexican desert. Nothing will stop their ruthless and murderous drive to recover the gold. Nothing, that is, until Pitt and his team place themselves in path of danger.

My very first Dirk Pitt book, and it was an action-pack read plus a little background into Andes culture and history.

It was like reading another Indiana Jones adventure + James Bond with all its gadgets.

It is a book you can put down when you start reading it, you just can’t stop till you reach the very end of Pitt’s adventure. An the author Cussler is also in the book as one of its minor character, just have to read it first to know where they met him

I guess I’ll be looking for more Dirk Pitt adventure now, I can’t wait to get my hands on them.
