Iceberg

ICEBERG: Clive Cussler: Berkley Books: 2004: 340 pages

Admiral Dirk Pitt, Special Projects Director for the National Underwater and Marine Agency, is investigating a mysterious ship trapped in an iceberg. He’s not the only one interested in the ship, though, and his involvement throws him into the path of a dangerous international group with a ruthless assassination team.

Cussler’s popular character, Pitt, has been described as a cross between James Bond and Jacques Cousteau. Iceberg is full of Bond-like action—karate, crashing helicopters, underwater excavation, deception, murder, flirtation, and spies fill the storyline. The beginning seemed slow, but once the action began, it was a non-stop adventure.
