Clive Cussler’s Cold Fire

DIVE INTO THE ELECTRIFYING ADVENTURE OF THE NUMA CREW FROM THE "GRAND MASTER OF ADVENTURE" CLIVE CUSSLER, THE LATEST IN THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES

A VANISHED NATO WEAPON

RIVAL POWERS CLOSING IN

ONE CHANCE TO STOP WORLD WAR THREE

When a NATO super-weapon is successfully tested at the North Pole, the aircraft carrying it suddenly vanishes off the radar, the crew are found murdered at their stations, and the weapon – capable of triggering global catastrophe – disappears into the Arctic mists.

The only American asset in the area is a small research vessel operated by NUMA’s Kurt Austin and Joe Zavala, who are pulled into a race against time to lead the search.

As rival Russian and Chinese powers close in to find the missing weapon, international rules of engagement are perilously suspended. But as Kurt and his team race to reach the wreck first, a darker mystery emerges: the world’s great powers are all being carefully manipulated by one vengeful man with a deadly plan . . .
