Devil's Gate
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 . . .

Clive Cussler
Before most thriller writers were sending heroes across collapsing ice shelves or into sunken wartime submarines, Clive Cussler was already there, charting the coordinates.
Born in 1931 in Aurora, Illinois, and raised in Southern California, Cussler grew up close enough to the Pacific to feel its pull. The ocean was not background scenery for him, it was a question mark. After serving in the U.S. Air Force during the Korean War as a flight engineer and mechanic, he moved into advertising, where he learned the art of momentum, how to seize attention quickly and never let it drift. That instinct would later define his brand of adventure fiction.
