Description
Crescent Dawn, the 21st pulse-pounding instalment in the Dirk Pitt adventure series by Clive Cussler and Dirk Cussler, spans centuries in a gripping tale of lost relics, modern terrorism, and ancient secrets. Beginning in A.D. 327 with a Roman galley fleeing pirates, and leaping to 1916 when a British warship is inexplicably destroyed, the story soon arrives in the present day as a series of devastating attacks on sacred mosques sends shockwaves through Turkey and Egypt.
As NUMA director Dirk Pitt investigates the growing unrest, he uncovers a dangerous link between these seemingly unconnected events: ancient Roman artefacts and a long-lost manifest that could alter the political landscape of the modern Middle East. With time running out and global stability at risk, Pitt must navigate a deadly conspiracy intent on restoring the Ottoman Empire’s power — and stop those determined to rewrite history.
Fans of high-stakes international intrigue, archaeological mysteries, and fast-paced action will find Crescent Dawn a classic Dirk Pitt adventure, packed with danger, discovery, and razor-sharp suspense.
