Publisher's Summary

In 1939, a secret airship departed Nazi Germany in the dark of night filled with some of the most influential people of its time.

Its cargo: a complement of rich Jewish families carrying their most valuable possessions. One such item among them was as dangerous as it was priceless.

The airship never reached its destination.

In 2015, Sam Reilly, a marine biologist and wealthy son of shipping mogul James Reilly, discovers a missing clue about the lost airship, and what follows is a violent treasure hunt kept secret by the most powerful men in the world today, driven by their greed and need for that which all are motivated: the opportunity for unlimited power.

Not my usual thing but it wouldn't let me go.

Do you like complex machinery and action? Typically I wouldn't pick up this kind of book but was recommended by a friend. I finished it in 2 days.

It's similar to the older James Bond films in tone.

Definitely give it a read/listen!

What a great book.

What a great book. Well thought out and very well written. The characters were interesting and the story line kept my interest. This book kept you me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was next. It pulls you in from the beginning and keeps you wanting more. I recommend this book to all. I can’t wait to read about Sam Reilly next treasure hunt.

Absolute rubbish and technically poor.

I love books about the sea and ships, but this one was rubbish. I struggled through the first couple of hours and finally gave up when the captain described his super tanker was carrying a cargo of coal! Narrator was also poor. Sorry!

Pretty pathetic, but maybe it was written for 12 year olds.
It was just so much poorly written crap.
