Clive Cussler - Dirk Pitt Series 5 Book Collection
Havana Storm
Renowned marine adventurer Dirk Pitt returns to stem a toxic outbreak.
While investigating a toxic outbreak in the Caribbean Sea that may ultimately threaten the United States, Pitt unwittingly becomes involved in something even more dangerous - a post-Castro power struggle for the control of Cuba.
Meanwhile, Pitt's children, marine engineer Dirk and oceanographer Summer, are on an investigation of their own, chasing an Aztec stone that may reveal the whereabouts of a vast historical Aztec treasure. The problem is, that stone was believed to have been destroyed on the battleship Maine in Havana Harbor in 1898, which brings the pair both to Cuba as well - and squarely into harm's way.
Pitt father, son and daughter have been in desperate situations before . . . but perhaps never quite as dire as the one facing them now.
Dirk Pitt returns in Havana Storm, the thrilling new novel from the grandmaster of adventure and No.1 New York Times bestselling author, Clive Cussler.
Poseidon's Arrow
In 1943 a submarine returning from a secret mission is attacked, its vital cargo believed lost . . .
Three quarters of a century later, NUMA director Dirk Pitt is asked to help locate a missing person: the scientist responsible for the design of the revolutionary Poseidon's Arrow submarine. This craft is so advanced and dangerous that any government would kill to posses it - and not only has its designer disappeared, but so too have the plans.
But this is no simple search.
It leads Pitt from Washington to the Panama jungle, draws in the full resources of NUMA, and slowly unravels a deadly conspiracy that seeks to bring the world to its knees- and only Pitt can prevent it.
Poseidon's Arrow follows Arctic Drift, Crescent Dawn and Atlantis Found as the next in the enthralling Dirk Pitt adventures.
