In 1959 a Skytrain plane flees Tibet - carrying a precious artefact - but after crossing the Himalayas it is never seen again . . .

Sixty years later Dirk Pitt and NUMA are surveying near the Philippines when a rogue wave nearly sinks their ship. Diverting to rescue washed-away islanders, Pitt discovers the wave has raised a sunken relic - an ancient cargo plane.

But before he can get to the bottom of one mystery, Pitt is hit with another: beat the Chinese military to find a lost hypersonic missile. Yet what should be a simple search and retrieve reveals evidence of a far more dangerous weapon.

Because the rogue wave that almost sank Pitt and devastated the islands was no natural phenomenon. And the weapon that caused it is to be turned on a much bigger target . . .

DIRK PITT IS BACK. AND ON HIS SHOULDERS RESTS THE FATE OF THE ENTIRE PLANET.

Tibet, 1959.

In the turmoil of the Communist takeover of the mountain kingdom, a Buddhist artefact of immense importance appears to have been lost to history.

Until, sixty years later, clues to its survival emerged from the wreckage of a cargo plane discovered deep beneath the surface of the Philippine Sea . . .

NUMA Director Dirk Pitt and his old friend Al Giordino already have their hands full dealing with the recovery of a top secret hypersonic missile that went down in the Luzon Strait. Especially when it becomes clear that a rogue Chinese military team has its sights set on the same prize.

And that, after making their own earth-shattering discovery about what lies below the waves, they're prepared to go to any lengths to ensure that they possess it.

Any lengths at all.

From the cold, dark depths of the Pacific Ocean to the vertiginous peaks of the Himalayas, only Dirk Pitt can unravel the mysteries that will bring the world back from the brink of war . . .
