Lost empire

Cussler, Clive. (Author). Blackwood, Grant. (Added Author).

Summary: While husband and wife treasure-hunters Sam and Remi Fargo are scuba diving in Tanzania, they discover a relic belonging to a long-lost Confederate ship named the SHENANDOAH. An anomaly about the relic sets them off chasing a mystery, and a rumored second artifact. But a fast-rising Mexican political party whose members boast direct descent from Aztec royalty is also intent on finding that same artifact, because it contains a secret that could destroy them utterly. But only one can win. And the penalty for failure is death.

    With Spartan Gold, a daring thriller that Publishers Weekly proclaimed "solidly in the Cussler tradition, [and] sure to please new fans and old," Clive Cussler introduced husband-and-wife treasure-hunting team Sam and Remi Fargo. In their electrifying new adventure, the Fargos make a startling discovery that others would kill to keep hidden...

An anomaly about the relic sets them off chasing a mystery-but unknown to them, a much more powerful force is engaged in the same chase. Mexico's ruling party, the ultranationalist Mexica Tenochca, is intent on finding that artifact as well, because it contains a secret that could destroy the party utterly.

    Filled with the dazzling suspense and breathtaking action that are Cussler's trademarks,Lost Empire is a stunning new novel from the grand master of adventure.
