Riassunto

Clive Cussler's astounding Devil's Gate sees the return of Kurt Austin and the NUMA team.

Deep beneath the Eastern Atlantic Ocean lies an extraordinary underwater burial ground of ships and planes . . .

Nearby, a Japanese cargo ship blows up without warning. Racing to help, Kurt Austin and the NUMA team are beaten to the scene by heavily armed pirates. But when the ruthless gang's own boat explodes as they're making their escape, the men from NUMA are suddenly plunged from a disaster into a mystery.

Soon they uncover a scheme involving the deadly ambitions of an African dictator, the creation of a weapon of terrible power, a kidnapped CERN scientist and a deep-water graveyard holding a lost aircraft and its precious cargo.

As a terrifying and audacious plan to bring the world's major nations to their knees is set in motion, only Kurt Austin - the right man, in the right place, at the right time - can stop it . . .

With Devil's Gate, UK number one bestseller Clive Cussler shows us once more why he is the grand master of adventure fiction. The ninth book in Clive Cussler's bestselling NUMA Files series, Devils's Gate is a novel that will have readers gripped right to the last page. Kurt Austin, hero of previous titles Medusa and The Navigator, must avert a disaster of global proportions.
