Treasure of khan: Dirk pitt series, book 19.
(eAudiobook)
Clive Cussler’s astonishing new Dirk Pitt® adventure. Black Wind continued Dirk Pitt’s meteoric career with one of Cussler’s most audacious, and well-received, novels yet: “ Black Wind more than maintains the supercharged Cusslerian danger” ( Kirkus Reviews ); “Thriller fans will revel in this action-packed yarn” ( Publishers Weekly ). But now Cussler takes an extraordinary leap, with one of his most remarkable villains ever. Genghis Khan–the greatest conqueror of all time, who at his peak ruled an empire that stretched from the Pacific Ocean to the Caspian Sea. His conquests are the stuff of legend, his tomb a forgotten mystery. Until now. When Dirk Pitt is nearly killed rescuing an oil survey team from a freak wave on Russia’s Lake Baikal, it appears a simple act of nature. But when the survey team is abducted and Pitt’s research vessel nearly sunk, it’s obvious there’s something more sinister involved. All trails lead to Mongolia, and a mysterious mogul who is conducting covert deals for supplying oil to the Chinese, while wreaking havoc on global oil markets with deadly acts of sabotage. The Mongolian harbors a dream of restoring the conquests of his ancestors, and holds a dark secret about Genghis Khan that just might give him the wealth and power to make the dream come true. Filled with breathtaking suspense and extraordinary imagination, his new novel is yet further proof that when it comes to adventure writing, nobody beats Clive Cussler.
