Atlantis Found
A group of anthropologists uncover strange inscriptions on the wall of a Colorado mine just as an explosion traps them deep within the earth. But their work won’t stay buried long. Dirk Pitt is on hand during the blast and quick to initiate a rescue operation. He is then tapped to lead a research crew on behalf of the U.S. National Underwater and Marine Agency to further study these uncanny artifacts. And that’s when his ship is set upon and nearly sunk by an impossibility—a vessel that should have died 56 years before.
Clearly, another group knows about the relics of this long-forgotten but highly-advanced seafaring culture. And they’ll stop at nothing to keep the rest of the world in the dark.

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.
