Detective Isaac Bell returns in this remarkable adventure from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author.

It is 1910, the age of flying machines is still in its infancy, and newspaper publisher Preston Whiteway is offering $50,000 for the first daring aviator to cross America in less than fifty days. He is even sponsoring one of the prime candidates-an intrepid woman named Josephine Frost-and that’s where Bell, chief investigator for the Van Dorn Detective Agency, comes in.

Frost’s violent-tempered husband has just killed her lover and tried to kill her, and he is bound to make another attempt. Bell has tangled with Harry Frost before; he knows that the man has made his millions leading gangs of thieves, murderers, and thugs in every city across the country. He also knows that Frost won’t be only after his wife, but after Whiteway as well. And if Bell takes the case…Frost will be after him, too.

The Dirk Pitt Series “Crescent Dawn” out on Paperback.

In A.D. 327, a Roman galley barely escapes a pirate attack with its extraordinary cargo. In 1916, a British warship mysteriously explodes in the middle of the North Sea. In the present day, a cluster of important mosques in Turkey and Egypt are wracked by explosions. Does anything tie them together?

NUMA director Dirk Pitt is 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, and to the existence of a mysterious “manifest,” lost long ago, which if discovered again . . . just may change the history of the world as we know it.

The Fargo Series “Lost Empire” out on Paperback.

While scuba diving in Tanzania, Sam and Remi Fargo discover a relic belonging to a long-lost Confederate ship named the Shenandoah. An anomaly about the relic sets them off chasing a mystery, and a rumored second artifact—but, unknown to them, a much more powerful force is engaged in the same chase. A fast-rising Mexican political party, whose members boast direct descent from Aztec royalty, is intent on finding that artifact as well, because it contains a secret that could destroy them utterly.

Through Africa, England, the rain forests of New Guinea, the windswept Kuril Islands, the site of the legendary 1883 Krakatoa explosion, and the heart of the Mexican jungles, the Fargos and their ruthless opponents pursue the hunt—but only one can win. And the penalty for failure is death.
