Isaac Bell returns for another thrilling mission in a new book from the grand master of adventure, Clive Cussler, featuring Dirk Pitt.

The Titanic's greatest secret is finally revealed...

When Dirk Pitt raised The Titanic in search of a rare and valuable element, he never learned the disturbing true story of its origins. But upon receiving secret testimony from private detective Isaac Bell, he's taken back to the year 1911 and a tragedy at Colorado's Little Angel Mine.

There, Isaac Bell is tasked with explaining the deaths of nine miners. But all is not as it seems, and soon Bell finds himself on his way to Europe, hunting for clues concerning a rare element of incalculable valueβ€”pursued by dangerous men who'll do anything to get their hands on it.

It's a journey that can only end with the fateful first and final voyage of the Titanic itself...
