Most of the beautiful damsels in distress are saved (one way or another) and most of the good guys come out on top. But not everybody - and not always the way you'd think. One of the better Cussler's I've read in quite a while - and yes I'm sure the co-authour has a lot to do with it. So much so I'm tempted to check out his solo work. If you like this style novel, then this one's a good example of the genre. Go ahead and grab a copy. Una noche de 1908, un hombre de rasgos orientales entra furtivamente en un arsenal de Washington y coloca los explosivos que causarán la muerte de Arthur Langner, el ingeniero naval más respetado del país, mientras interpreta una pieza de piano. Una serie de pistas confunden a la policía, que dictamina que se trata de un suicidio. Sin embargo, Dorothy Langner, la joven y bella hija del ingeniero, no cree ni por un momento que su padre se quitara la vida y acude a la agencia de detectives Van Dorn para aclarar las circunstancias de su muerte. Desde la primera entrevista, Isaac Bell, el detective más prestigioso de la firma, cree la versión de la joven, así que decide ayudarla y unir fuerzas hasta esclarecer qué pasó aquella noche. A well written book, but a lot slower paced than the others by Clive Cussler. It showed insight into the lives of people which we can not quite understand as it was defintely slower (I think) than the rushed lives we live today. The race to secure information on what our competitors (be they companies / countries or people) are doing has not changed but I think got more involved. It would be interesting to see what the other Isaac Bell adventures are like. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
