But Pitt and his compatriot Al Giordino have larger worries when they are ordered to recover a missile from Luzon Strait. Only someone else is after it, too--a rogue Chinese military team that makes their own discovery, hijacking a ship capable of stirring the waters into a veritable Devil's Sea. Only Dirk Pitt can unravel the mysteries that will preserve a religion, save a nation and save the world from war"--,Back cover.
