Medusa : a novel from the NUMA files

Cussler, Clive. (Author). Kemprecos, Paul. (Added Author).

Summary: In the Micronesian islands, a top-secret U.S. government-sponsored undersea lab conducting vital biomedical research on a rare jellyfish known as the Blue Medusa suddenly...disappears. At the same time, off Bermuda, a bathysphere is attacked by an underwater vehicle and left helpless a half-mile below the surface, its passengers-including Zavala-left to die. Only Kurt Austin's heroic measures save them from a watery grave, but suspecting a connect5ion, Austin puts NUMA team on the case. He has no idea what he's just gotten them all into. A hideous series of medical experiments...an extraordinary ambitious Chinese criminal organization...a secret new virus that threatens to set off a worldwide pandemic. Austin and Zavala have been in tight spots before, but this time it's not just their own skins they're trying to save-it's the lives of millions. --[Book Jacket].
