Track of the Bengal (Paperback)

EYE OF THE TIGER The Bengal set sail from a teeming Singapore harbor, but its precious cargo comes from the heart of the war-torn Middle East. The freighter is traveling under the flag of Cameroon, headed for an unknown destination. Deep in its hull the ship carries one of the deadliest devices ever invented, which silently waits for the perfect moment to detonate. EYE OF THE STORM The intelligence forces of the world discover that a red bomb-an anti-personnel, mercury-based nuclear device-is on board the missing freighter. But one man, a veteran of the international killing game, is prying loose the information-tracking clues in the twisting alleys of Cairo and across the blood-stained streets of Northern Ireland-that will expose the conspirators. Meanwhile a former Special Forces officer is on board the hellbound vessel itself. Now, analysts and soldiers, spies and strategists scramble in Washington, the Middle East and even Castro's crumbling Cuba in a frantic search to find the Bengal. But only the terrorists themselves know where they are going to strike-and how their weapon will launch the next war. "A true master of adventure." -Clive Cussler
