December, 1941. Four brothers investigate the secrets of a treasure pit on a small island in the Pacific. But a sudden death and the coming war allow its secrets to lie forgotten... Present day. Juan Cabrillo and the Oregon team have been sent to locate the remains of a crashed NASA satellite in the Argentine jungle.
"For four novels, Clive Cussler has charted the exploits of the Oregon, a covert ship completely dilapidated on the outside but on the inside packed with sophisticated weaponry and intelligence-gathering equipment. Captained by the rakish, one-legged Juan Cabrillo and manned by a crew of former military and spy personnel, it is a private enterprise, available for any government agency that can afford it - and now Cussler sends the Oregon on its most extraordinary mission yet." The crew has just completed a top secret mission against Iran in the Persian Gulf when they come across a cruise ship adrift at sea. Hundreds of bodies litter its deck, and, as Cabrillo tries to determine what happened, explosions rack the length of the ship. Barely able to escape with his own life and that of the liner's sole survivor, Cabrillo finds himself plunged into a mystery as intricate - and as perilous - as any he has ever known and pitted against a cult with monstrously lethal plans for the human race ... plans he may already be too late to stop.

Tami Oldham and her fiancé, Richard Sharp, set sail from Tahiti under brilliant blue skies and their future together was just as bright. Young and in love, they were both expert sailors who had already seen much of the world and planned to see more. But twenty days into their journey they sailed directly into a monumental hurricane . . . Strapped in the cabin, Tami was knocked unconscious and awoke twenty-seven hours later to find the boat in ruins, with the masts missing, the engine, navigational instruments and radio broken, and Richard gone. Tami was weeks away from land, with a major head wound, little food or water and the emotional devastation caused by the loss of her lover and soul mate. RED SKY IN MOURNING is a compelling and devastating, but ultimately inspiring, account of how much can go wrong on the ocean and how, miraculously, one person conquered her own fears and survived.

In un caldo pomeriggio texano, Cindy Nance rivela a Doug Hoover due grandi segreti della vita. Il primo lo entusiasma, mentre il secondo, che i ragazzi crescono e devono lavorare, lo delude. Attraverso matrimoni falliti e lavori insoddisfacenti, Doug si rende conto della verità delle parole di Cindy. Deluso dal presente, cerca di rivivere le gioie del passato, decidendo di lasciare moglie e lavoro. Tuttavia, la sua vita cambia quando incontra Sue Jean, il sogno di una vita, e Royce, un vagabondo. I tre si ritrovano in un mondo avventuroso, dove la vita, la morte e l’amore assumono nuovi significati. In questo romanzo on the road, le emozioni si intrecciano in un caleidoscopio di follie narrative. La realtà e la magia si confondono, creando un universo in cui tutto sembra possibile. I sogni si mescolano alla vita reale, e le strade conducono esattamente dove si deve andare. Il tono ironico ricorda altri maestri texani, come Larry McMurtry, mentre l'assurdità della narrazione porta alla mente Thomas Pynchon.
