Title: Night Probe
May 1914. Two top diplomats hurry home by sea and rail, each carrying a document of world-changing importance. Then the liner Empress of Ireland is sunk in a collision, and the Manhattan-Line express plunges from a shattered bridge - both dragging their VIP passengers to watery oblivion. Tragic coincidence - or conspiracy?
Three quarters of a century later, a chance revelation re-opens the question. In the energy-starved, fear-torn 1980s, those long-lost papers could destroy whole nations, and Dirk Pitt, the man who raised the Titanic, confronts his biggest challenge yet. Racing against time, against the hired killers of enemies and allies alike - and the horrors of the sea bed - he launches his revolutionary deep-sea search craft in the hunt for the documents. 'Night Probe' has begun.
