Japan, 1945: Two U.S. bombers take off with atomic bombs.

Only one gets through.

The Pacific, 1993: A Japanese cargo ship bound for the United

States is instantly, thunderously vaporized, taking with it a

Norwegian vessel. Japanese fanatics have developed a chilling

plan to devastate and destroy the Western powers. From the

ocean depths to the discovery of cache of lost Nazi loot,

DIRK PITT is untangling a savage conspiracy and igniting a

daring counterattack. While Washington bureaucrats scramble,

a brutal industrialist commands his blackmail scheme from a

secret island control center. And DIRK PITT, the dauntless

hero of Sahara and Inca Gold, is taking on death-dealing robots

and a human-hunting descendant of samurai warriors. Pitt

alone controls the West's secret ace in the hole: a tidal wave of

destruction waiting to be triggered on the ocean floor!
