La flecha de Poseidón (Dirk Pitt 22)
La carrera armamentística arrastra a la humanidad hasta el borde de un precipicio, y su salvación está en manos de Dirk Pitt. Hace décadas que la tecnología de defensa americana no contaba con un adelanto de tal magnitud como la Flecha de los mares, un submarino de ataque capaz de alcanzar velocidades inconcebibles hasta ahora. Sin embargo, hay dos problemas graves: se ha robado un elemento clave del prototipo del submarino y la única persona que podría reconstruirlo está muerta. Entretanto, algunos barcos han desaparecido durante la travesía por el océano Pacífico y cuando reaparecen, solo hay cadáveres a bordo. Dirk Pitt no tardará en establecer la relación entre estos acontecimientos. Con la inestimable ayuda de su hijo Dirk, ingeniero naval, de su hija Summer, oceanógrafa, y de la intrépida agente Ann Bennett, el ingenio de Pitt desvelará una conspiración que pretende utilizar la tecnología bélica estadounidense de última generación con fines diabólicos. ¿Llegará a tiempo de evitarlo?

Viento letal (Dirk Pitt 18)
Dirk Pitt es un hombre de acción, siempre listo para cualquier reto, siempre preparado para enfrentarse con ingenio y fuerza física contra cualquier problema irresoluble. Se han producido varias muertes misteriosas en una isla de Alaska, así como un ataque por sorpresa a Dirk Pitt durante el reconocimiento de un submarino japonés hundido durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Se trata de hechos inconexos, pero que ponen a Pitt en el rastro de una vasta conspiración. A finales de la guerra, los japoneses habían protagonizado un último y desesperado intento de atacar Estados Unidos con el envío de dos submarinos a la costa Oeste con una peligrosa carga: un virus letal. Los submarinos se hundieron. Sin embargo, las armas bacteriológicas no perdieron su mortífera capacidad. Y no falta gente sin escrúpulos dispuesta a aprovecharse de ello. Por eso Dirk Pitt, junto con sus hijos gemelos Summer, bióloga marina, y Dirk, ingeniero marino, se dispone a localizar y aniquilar la amenaza mediante una arriesgada operación. Y ello a pesar de que nunca se había enfrentado a un enemigo tan despiadado y con tanto poder de destrucción. Reseña: «Un thriller de padre e hijo protagonizado por un equipo de padre e hijo que sabe explotar aún más la acción y los peligros marca de la casa.» Kirkus Review

Zur selben Zeit verschwinden im Atlantik mehrere Schiffe. Die meisten werden niemals wiedergefunden. Aber wenn doch, befinden sich an Bord grausam verbrannte Leichen.

Vento nero
L’ammiraglio Sandecker si è ritirato a vita privata, e dopo anni di servizio in prima linea il suo migliore agente, Dirk Pitt, ha deciso di accettare la dirigenza della NUMA, la più importante agenzia di ricerca e recupero sottomarino di cui possano disporre gli Stati Uniti. Ma Dirk, vecchio lupo di mare, non si rassegna certo a stare dietro una scrivania, e il suo vecchio amico e compagno di avventure Al Giordino non è da meno. Si trovano infatti nelle Filippine per controllare strani fenomeni sottomarini quando cominciano ad accadere avvenimenti preoccupanti: nelle isole Aleutine si verifica una strana moria di animali e uomini. Alcuni scienziati sembrano colpiti da un virus, un virus diffuso nell’aria da qualcuno che stia eseguendo una prova generale per un disastro di proporzioni mai viste. Nella zona si trova Dirk Jr, figlio di Pitt e nuova punta di diamante della NUMA, assieme alla sorella gemella Summer. Saranno loro, con l’aiuto di un simpatico e misterioso personaggio, a rintracciare l’origine del complotto... sul fondo del mare, dove dai tempi della seconda guerra mondiale è rimasta celata un’arma micidiale che qualcuno, a Oriente, è convinto di poter usare contro l’America, ma rendendola cento volte più terrificante con il potere delle moderne tecnologie. Con il ritmo mozzafiato di un grande film d’avventura, Clive Cussler torna a raccontarci le rischiose gesta della famiglia Pitt in cielo, in acqua, sott’acqua e in terra, contro nemici pericolosi animati da folli progetti. E ai lettori del suo ciclo di romanzi più famoso, qui arricchito di nuovi affascinanti personaggi, regala ancora una volta grandi emozioni.

Alba di fuoco
«I romanzi di Clive Cussler sono come quei blockbuster cinematografici che vorresti snobbare ma no, devi ammettere che vincono loro.» la Repubblica «È un magistrale protagonista dell''avventura, non solo scritta ma anche vissuta.» Corriere della Sera Le affascinanti profondità marine celano tesori e misteri meravigliosi e inimmaginabili, che sfidano il tempo e la memoria. Nessuno lo sa meglio di Dirk Pitt, direttore della Numa, e del suo braccio destro Al Giordino, che al mare hanno dedicato la vita e la professione. Ma questa volta c’è un inspiegabile filo rosso che lega una galera romana affondata nel Mediterraneo da un attacco di pirati nel 327 a.C. e una nave da guerra britannica, misteriosamente scomparsa nel 1916 al largo delle isole Orcadi. Un filo rosso di sangue che porta fino ai giorni nostri, a una serie di violenti attentati a danno di moschee al Cairo e a Istanbul, che rischiano di far precipitare la situazione già molto tesa del Medio Oriente. A chi appartiene la mano omicida che muove le fila di questo terribile disegno di morte? Solo Dirk Pitt può venirne a capo, aiutato dai suoi figli Dirk jr e Summer, in un’avventura senza respiro che li porterà dai vicoli di Gerusalemme ai castelli della campagna inglese, allo splendido palazzo del Topkapi, in fuga da un’oscura e terribile organizzazione capeggiata da un criminale sadico che cova un folle sogno di grandezza. Fino a una scoperta sensazionale, che potrebbe rimettere in discussione la Storia e le sue verità. Ma il prezzo da pagare per gli eroi della Numa sarà molto alto.

At the same time, ships have started vanishing mid-ocean, and when a few reappear, bodies are found aboard burned to a crisp. Could these mysterious events be connected to an Italian submarine that itself disappeared in 1943? It is up to NUMA director Dirk Pitt and his team, aided by a beautiful NCIS agent and by Pitt’s children, marine engineer Dirk and oceanographer Summer, to go on a desperate international chase to find the truth, from Washington to Mexico, Idaho to Panama. What they discover at the end of it is a much, much greater threat than even they imagined. Filled with breathtaking suspense and extraordinary imagination, Poseidon’s Arrow is further proof that when it comes to adventure writing, nobody beats Clive Cussler.

NUMA director Dirk Pitt and his team are about to find out, as Roman artifacts discovered in Turkey and Israel unnervingly connect to the rise of a fundamentalist movement determined to restore the glory of the Ottoman Empire. From Washington to London to the treacherous shores of the Near East, dangerous men and desperate acts fill their path, and at the end of it, the most dangerous thing of all: the rumored existence of a mysterious “manifest,” lost long ago, which if discovered again could shed new light on early Christianity and just might change the history of the world as we know it.
