Its deadly cargo, lost in the sea for nearly 50 years, is at the heart of this classic Dirk Pitt thriller, in which a small group of Japanese nationalist fanatics, dreaming of a new Nipponese Empire, set out to neutralise and blackmail the USA - with nuclear weapons planted strategically in the country's major cities....

The President of the United States had reason to be grateful. Dirk Pitt had unearthed the greatest storehouse of knowledge in the ancient world: the Alexandria Library. The trail began in a lonely fjord in Greenland. It ended on the banks of the Rio Grande. In between Pitt had frustrated an assassination, rescued a hijacked liner, survived a deadly gun battle and halted an invasion. A gripping, action-packed story by a master of the craft.

Classic Dirk Pitt
- By Jenna Waters on 17-09-2020
Publisher's Summary
The unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Clive and Dirk Cussler's imaginative adventure Arctic Drift, read by the award-winning narrator Scott Brick.
A potential breakthrough discovery to reverse global warming...a series of unexplained sudden deaths in British Colombia...a rash of international incidents between the United States and one of its closest allies that threatens to erupt into an actual shooting war....
NUMA director Dirk Pitt and his children, Dirk. Jr. and Summer, have reason to believe there's a connection here somewhere, but they also know they have very little time to find it before events escalate out of control. Their only real clue might just be a mysterious silvery mineral traced to a long-ago expedition to find the fabled Northwest Passage. But no one survived from that doomed mission; captain and crew perished to a man - and if Pitt and his colleague Al Giordino aren't careful, the very same fate may await them.
Filled with the breathtaking suspense and audacious imagination that have become his hallmarks, this is a tour de force, further proof that when it comes to adventure writing, nobody beats Clive Cussler.

Another fine performance by Dirk Pitt and co!
Where does Arctic Drift rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Love Dirk Pitt and the adventures he gets up too. Very descriptive narration so I loved listening to it and picturing the scene.
What did you like best about this story?
All the characters involved played a pivotal role and the book. Loved when the running theme of characters lives makes advances and continues into the next story..... I hope!
Which scene did you most enjoy?
The tit for tat journey between Pitt and the enemy trying to find the treasure. I couldn't wait to see what would happen next!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I did but the narrators voice is so soothing I relax too much and nod off. Looked forward to listening to as much as I could every night.
Any additional comments?
Can't wait for another Dirk Pitt novel!
