Synopsis
1896: Four Englishmen flee for their lives across the merciless Kalahari Desert carrying a stolen fortune in raw diamonds and hunted by a fierce African tribe. The thieves manage to reach the waiting HMS Rove - only to die with their pursuers in a vicious storm that buries them all under tons of sand...The present day: Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the covert combat ship Oregon have barely escaped a mission on the Congo River when they intercept a mayday from a defenceless boat under fire off the African coast. Cabrillo takes action, saving the beautiful Sloane Macintyre - who's looking for a long-submerged ship that may hold a fortune in diamonds.But what surprises Cabrillo is her story about a crazy fisherman who claims to have been attacked on the open sea by giant metal snakes in the same area. What begins as a snake hunt leads Cabrillo on to the trail of a far more lethal quarry - a deranged militant and his followers who plan to unleash the devastating power of nature itself against all who oppose them. In his latest bestseller, Clive Cussler, the Grandmaster of Adventure, shows once again that when it comes to page-turning action, he's the man to beat.

From AudioFile
Juan Cabrillo is off the coast of Africa with the crew of the OREGON, a high-tech undercover combat ship for hire, when he becomes entangled with beautiful Sloane Macintyre. With their combined resources and determination they seek a lost fortune in stolen diamonds. The treasure's dark history is matched by the fanaticism of an influential environmental terrorist. Narrator Scott Brick is well suited for this testosterone-laced tale of tough guys. His voice projects barely restrained intensity, like a street-fighter looking for any excuse to start throwing punches. Unfortunately, Brick's British and African accents are not as strong as his solid narration of the main characters. N.M.C. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Skeleton Coast is Clive Cussler's fourth Oregon Files adventure, featuring captain Juan Cabrillo. 1896: HMS Rove vanishes in a shocking storm off the African coast. Aboard is a fortune in stolen diamonds. Present day: Juan Cabrillo and the crew of the covert super-ship Oregon have just escaped a double-cross on the Congo River when they come to the aid of Sloane Macintyre - looking for some long lost treasure. Sloane's story is strange and when Juan checks it out, he finds that there's much more than just diamonds at stake on the African coast. A deranged militant and his followers plan to unleash a devastating power that will kill millions and cause worldwide havoc. Soon the Oregon is steaming to the rescue - but some forces are so extreme that even a hero like Juan Cabrillo thinks twice before getting involved.

Condition: Como nuevo. : En 1896, cuatro ingleses huyen a través del implacable desierto de Kalahari con una fortuna robada en diamantes en bruto, perseguidos por una feroz tribu africana. Los ladrones logran llegar al HMS Rove, solo para morir con sus perseguidores en una tormenta que los entierra a todos bajo toneladas de arena. En la actualidad, Juan Cabrillo y la tripulación del buque de combate encubierto Oregon escapan por poco de una misión en el río Congo cuando interceptan una llamada de auxilio de un barco indefenso bajo fuego frente a la costa africana. Cabrillo entra en acción, salvando a la hermosa Sloane Macintyre, que está buscando un barco sumergido que puede contener una fortuna en diamantes. Pero lo que sorprende a Cabrillo es su historia sobre un pescador loco que afirma haber sido atacado en la misma zona en mar abierto por serpientes metálicas gigantes. Lo que comienza como una búsqueda de serpientes lleva a Cabrillo tras la pista de una presa mucho más letal: un militante trastornado y sus seguidores que planean desatar el poder devastador de la naturaleza contra todos los que se oponen a ellos.
