Description

Detective Isaac Bell's investigation into an attempted assassination brings him to the construction site of the Panama Canal—and straight into a nest of vipers—in the latest adventure in the #1 New York Times-bestselling series from Clive Cussler.
Detective Isaac Bell's wife has said that he is always in the wrong place at the right time. This is certainly the case when Bell thwarts the assassination of a U.S. Senator shortly after meeting the man. This heroic rescue is just the start of the mystery for Bell, who suspects that the would-be assassins have a much larger and more dangerous agenda—one involving the nearly-constructed Panama Canal. While the senator supports the building of the canal, there are many, including a local Panamanian insurgency known as the Red Vipers, who never want to see its completion.
With millions of dollars and the fates of two nations at stake, Bell heads to Panama to find answers. After a deadly bombing at the canal's construction site, he is determined to stop the insurgents—or whoever is funding them—before they can attack again.

        December 1, 2020

        In his 12th outing, Det. Isaac Bell blocks the assassination of a U.S. senator who supported construction of the nearly completed Panama Canal; the would-be assassins are evidently Panamanian insurgents who bitterly oppose it. Bell's last foray, The Titanic Secret, debuted at No. 5 on the New York Times best sellers list.

        It’s 1914, and bestseller Cussler’s top-notch 12th Isaac Bell adventure (after 2019’s The Titanic Secret, also coauthored with Du Brul) finds detective Bell and his wife, Marion, in Panama after foiling an attempt on the life of a U.S. senator in San Diego, Calif., by a Panamanian insurgent group. Meanwhile, Teddy Roosevelt is on his way to Panama to view the Panama Canal, which is still under construction, and a German industrialist, who was behind an earlier effort to assassinate the former American president, is going to try again. In short order, Bell is buried alive, loses his memory, and is thrown into jail. On top of all that, Marion is kidnapped. After Bell escapes and his memory is restored, he sets out to rescue Marion. Along the way, he untangles a complex plot that aims to destroy the canal. Against a colorful backdrop of Panama Canal lore, the action builds to a classic scene of hand-to-hand combat aboard a dirigible that could explode at any moment. Cussler fans will be well satisfied. Agent: Peter Lampack, Peter Lampack Agency.

        Malign forces want to slow completion of the Panama Canal, but Isaac Bell has plenty to say about that in his 12th tale of derring-do. In 1914, the U.S. is digging an enormous ditch across the mosquito-infested isthmus of Panama, with "mechanical dragons wreathed in steam" ripping out eight tons at a time in the Culebra Cut. Horrific incidents happen, and they're not always accidents. A mysterious terrorist group called Viboras Rojas, or Red Vipers, seems responsible for an explosion that kills dozens and delays the canal's construction. Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn Detective Agency is sent there to investigate, and a team of wild horses wouldn't keep his wife, Marion, from coming along. Bell keeps mighty busy. Within days, he's "thwarted an assassination attempt and brought a mad bomber to heel," and he's just getting started. The detective is exceptionally observant and ingenious. How he survives a catastrophic landslide is such a combination of quick thinking and luck that readers will hold their breath as they turn the pages, only realizing later how unlikely it all is. Meanwhile, Germany conspires with Argentina to severely delay the canal's opening--Argentina would lose plenty of oceangoing commerce, and as it girds for war in Europe, Germany fears America's rise as a global power. The proximate villain is Otto Dreissen, who correctly believes that former President Teddy Roosevelt won't be able to resist traveling to see "the most transformative engineering feat in history...dangers be damned"--and there is danger, since the kaiser has authorized Roosevelt's assassination. But first Dreissen must arrange an "accident" for Bell, the "man with the nine lives of a cat." Poor Otto. He should know it's not that easy to kill off a series hero. Nor a series hero's wife, even when she's dangling from a dirigible. A bonus tip to readers: Stay away from manchineel trees and superheated steam. Fast-paced fun that's fraught with peril. The Bells are such a nice couple.
