    About this audiobook

    Russian mastermind Ivan Kerikov plans to use an ecological terrorist group to sabotage the Alaska pipeline and pollute the western coast of North America with oil, all to turn the United States from domestic to foreign sources of oil. He's being paid millions by a rogue Arab oil minister who is plotting a coup in his own country and is in desperate need of foreign income to solidify his position.

    But Kerikov hasn't allowed for geologist Philip Mercer, who has a talent for being in the right place at the right time. When Mercer discovers that an apparent accident was actually murder, he investigates and soon begins to untangle Kerikov's web. At his side is Aggie Johnston, right hand woman to the eco-terrorist, who has begun to question her leader's motives.

    • 5/5
      The ending wraps up nicely. And I enjoyed the tension throughout.
    • 4/5
      Enjoyable romp. Social commentary about Alaska Wildlife Refuge even more pertinent now than when this was written.
    • 4/5
      This is the second Jack Du Brul book I've read and I'm feeling like Philip Mercer is a budget version of Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt.That's not to say this book is bad, it's certainly not. It's just not particularly original in anyway - so if you're thinking it's going to be a ground breaking action novel you may just be disappointed but if you're after something that fills in the time in an entertaining way it's not a bad book to chose.
    • 4/5
      Terrific book. Fast-paced, romatic, suspenceful. Everything in one great read.
