Clive Cussler's 2016 Dirk Pitt adventure. Surveying the Black Sea for an Ottoman wreck, Dirk Pitt answers a Mayday and boards a freighter of the dead, its hold laden with stolen uranium. The find pulls him into a smuggling web reaching from the Bulgarian coast to the ports of Ukraine - a Cold War secret and a Romanov treasure bound up in a plot to spark a war.
