Dymocks Book of the Week – The Emperor’s Revenge

Juan Cabrillo and the crew of The Oregon face their toughest challenge in The Emperor’s Revenge.

A violent bank heist during the Monaco Grand Prix decimates the Corporation’s accounts.

To get the money back, Juan joins forces with an old friend from his days in the CIA so they can track down a rogue hacker and a ruthless former Ukrainian naval officer.

It is only after the hunt begins that the enormity of the plan comes into focus: the bank theft is just the first step in a plot that will result in the deaths of millions and bring the world’s economies to a standstill.

The catalyst for the scheme?

A stunning document stolen during Napoleon’s disastrous invasion of Russia. But two hundred years later, it may be the thing that brings Europe to its knees.

Cussler began writing novels in 1965 and published his first work featuring his continuous series hero, Dirk Pitt, in 1973.

His first non-fiction, The Sea Hunters, was released in 1996. The Board of Governors of the Maritime College, State University of New York, considered The Sea Hunters in lieu of a Ph.D. thesis and awarded Cussler a Doctor of Letters degree in May, 1997. It was the first time since the College was founded in 1874 that such a degree was bestowed.

 The Emperor’s Revenge by Clive Cussler and Boyd Morrison is available from Dymocks.
