True to form, Cus­sler squeezes quite a bit into this book. There’s the dis­cov­ery of an archae­o­log­i­cal site that will cause his­tory to be rewrit­ten, a res­cue from beneath a glac­ier, a sci­en­tific exper­i­ment gone hor­ri­bly wrong, the dis­cov­ery of a new marine geot­her­mal phe­nom­e­non, a plot to destroy the world’s oceans, and a rich and pow­er­ful fam­ily that has had its hands in world affairs for mil­lenia. In the end, Kurt Austin saves the planet and gets the girl. As with all of Cussler’s nov­els, the plot is con­vo­luted and absurd, and I loved it.
