    Qui se méfierait d’un vieux cargo rouillé, susceptible de s’échouer dans le premier port venu ? Pourtant l’Oregon abrite des installations ultrasophistiquées, des systèmes de communication et d’armement à faire pâlir de jalousie les services secrets des plus grands pays. Quant à l’équipage, il est composé des mercenaires surentraînés de la fameuse Corporation dirigée par l’énigmatique capitaine Juan Cabrillo. Leur mission : retrouver un bouddha en or volé au dalaï-lama. Les Chinois, les Russes et les Américains sont sur le pied de guerre. De Genève à Macao, le bouddha passe de main en main à un rythme effréné jusqu’à ce qu’un trafiquant d’art se mêle d’en faire une copie... Mais pourquoi une telle fascination pour cette statue ?

    Protéger l'émir du Qatar pendant le Sommet pour la Paix des pays arabes à Reykjavik : la mission s'annonce plutôt tranquille pour les agents secrets de la Corporation. Mais l'interception d'un message annonçant la découverte d'une météorite sans doute dangereuse change la donne. Cette mystérieuse pierre noire attise autant les convoitises des terroristes islamistes que celles d'un puissant industriel américain. Des Etats-Unis à l'Arabie Saoudite, en passant par Londres, l'Ecosse, Israël et le Groenland, les hommes de la Corporation vont devoir affronter le spectre du terrorisme sous toutes ses formes, des plus terrifiantes aux plus inattendues, afin de sauver des millions de vies humaines et d'empêcher la destruction de deux villes emblématiques.

Now, however, giant commercial freighters are disappearing.

    Plague ship

    A novel from the Oregon files

    4,1(9849)Évaluer

    An exhilarating new adventure in the bestselling Oregon Files series. For four novels, Clive Cussler has charted the exploits of the Oregon, a clandestine spy ship completely dilapidated on the outside, but on the inside packed with sophisticated weaponry and intelligence-gathering equipment. Captained by the rakish, one-legged Juan Cabrillo and manned by a crew of former military and spy personnel, it is a private enterprise, available for any government agency that can afford it - and now Cussler sends the Oregon on its most extraordinary mission yet. The crew has just completed a top-secret mission against Iran in the Persian Gulf, when they come across a cruise ship adrift in the sea. Hundreds of bodies litter its deck, and as Cabrillo tries to determine what happened, explosions rack the length of the ship. Barely able to escape with his own life and that of the liner's sole survivor, Cabrillo finds himself plunged into a mystery as intricate - and as perilous - as any he has ever known, and pitted against a cult with monstrously lethal plans for the human race . . . plans he may already be too late to stop. Plague Ship is a high-stakes, high-seas journey that proves once again that Cussler is the master of high octane adventure.
