Corsair : a novel of the Oregon files

Cussler, Clive. (Author). Du Brul, Jack B. (Added Author).

Summary: When the U.S. secretary of state's plane crashes while bringing her to a summit meeting in Libya, the CIA, distrusting the Libyans, hire Cabrillo to search for her, and the misgivings prove well founded. The crew locates the plane-but the secretary of state has vanished. A terrorist mastermind has other plans for the conference, plans that Cabrillo cannot let happen. But what does it all have to do with a two-hundred-year-old naval battle, and the centuries-old Islamic scrolls that the Libyans seem so determined to find? The answers will lead Cabrillo full circle into history, and into another pitched battle of the sea, this time against Islamic extremists, and with the fate of nations resting on its outcome. --[Book Jacket].
