Description

How would it feel to have the weight of a million lives on your shoulders? It's just part of the job for Dirk Pitt, eco-warrior for a national marine agency, on a case in the year 2000. Pitt's after Arthur Dorsett, a diamond tycoon who mines the Pacific with high frequency undersea sound waves. The sound's incredible energy kills everything in range, setting off a marine holocaust that threatens to reach Honolulu.


 


Dorsett couldn't care less. Nothing stands in his way. He stuffs diamonds down one enemy's throat and nearly scuttles Pitt in the open ocean. Dorsett's daughter, Maeve, even turns against him, helping Pitt infiltrate her father's island fortress. Can they stop Dorsett in time? Or will he get them first?
