| Dirk Pitt and his long-lost children twins Dirk and Summer join forces in this action-packed adventure/thriller. When a brown tide is infesting the waters near the shore of Nicarauga, NUMA sends the twins to investigate. Two things happen during this investigation: Sommer uncovers an ancient artifact that should, according to all historical knowledge, should be impossible to be at that location; and they discover they are in the path of a huge hurricane.
