About this ebook

Sam and Remi Fargo search for a legendary lost city in this thrilling adventure from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author.
 
Husband-and-wife treasure-hunting team Sam and Remi Fargo have heard many rumors about the bay off Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands. Some say it was the site of the vanished empire of the Solomon king and that great treasure lies beneath the waters. Others say terrible things happened here, atrocities and disappearances at the hands of cannibal giants, and those who venture there do not return. It is cursed.

The Fargos can’t resist the mystery, but their exploration takes a turn when islanders start disappearing. Soon the pair learn there may be truth behind the fables. Clues and whispers lead them on a hunt from the Solomons to Australia to Japan, and what they find at the end of the trail is both wonderful and monstrous—and like nothing they have ever seen before.

Ratings and reviews

I've read all of Cussler's books and own 90% of them. I look forward to every new release. This book was painful, drawn out and boring. It took over half the book before anything exciting happened then just dragged from there. A few moments of going to a character that is confusing to the story line until the end. It was like watching a bad movie but you stick it out to see if the end is worth it. It was not. Sorry, Clive. Missed the mark on this one.

Ive read all of Cusslers books and for the last five years they have slowly got worse with each new title , this one hits a new low, same old treasure hunt , same old plot just reworked abit ,

I have a hard copy and loved it. I didn't know this was the second book lol
