Dark Watch

Clive Cussler, Jack Du Brul

The author of the bestselling NUMA and Dirk Pitt series returns with an all - new novel of adventure and intrigue featuring his unbeatable hero of the high seas - Juan Cabrillo. Cabrillo and his motley crew aboard the clandestine spy ship Oregon have made a very comfortable and very dangerous living working for high - powered Western interests. But their newest clients have come from the Far East to ask for Cabrillo's special brand of assistance: a consortium of Japanese shipping magnates whose fortunes are being threatened by brutal pirates trolling the waters of South - east Asia. Normally, such attacks on the high seas are limited to smaller ships and foreign - owned yachts easy targets on the open ocean. Now, however, giant commercial freighters are disappearing. But when Cabrillo confronts the enemy, he learns that the pirates' predations hide a deadly international conspiracy - a scheme of death and slavery that Juan Cabrillo is going to blow out of the water.
