Publisher's summary

The outstanding new Sam and Remi Fargo adventure from the number-one New York Times best-selling author.

An 800-year-old treasure...an ancient cypher wheel...a brutal murder...and a man who will stop at nothing to claim what he considers rightfully his.

Husband-and-wife treasure-hunting team Sam and Remi Fargo have gone on impossible missions before and faced many perils, but never have they faced an adversary as determined as the one before them now. The battle will take them halfway around the world and at its end will be either one of the most glorious finds in history - or certain death.

Critic reviews

“The best book to date featuring the married treasure hunters. Readers will be thrilled to discover that Pirate delivers the action and thrills.... The main characters have never been so engaging and fun.” (Associated Press)

“Sam and Remi are fearless, honest, curious, and resourceful in all situations. Fasten your seat belt for this wonderful read!” (Library Journal)

“Scenes, settings, and action are graphic-novel worthy, from sweat-stained jungle treks to bad-guy confrontations, all laced with historical factoids and a soupcon of fantasy for across-the-board appeal. Cussler and Company continue the winning formula, and this jungle episode will satisfy the cravings of every fan.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Not Cussler's Best

This was kind of the same old Fargo story with the rich bad guy, lost treasure and the resultant close scrapes with death, as expected, but this one is very dull. Unfortunately, it reads like a rough draft rather than a final copy and Cussler fans will likely be very disappointed. Supporting characters are underdeveloped, the historical tie-ins are vague, and the intended climax is anything but. In addition, my favorite narrator, Scott Brick, is less than stellar this time around. Several times his English accent takes on an Australian twang which was pretty distracting.

Tad bit disappointed

I love this series of books and eagerly got the newest addition. Way too predictable, didn't learn much historically and the characters were pretty shallow in this one. I guess Remi and Sam are running out of new adventures...:(

Same Fargo Formula

Unfortunately or fortunately the Fargo's stumble across another treasure and some mad man give them the slip and win the day. A little mixing up of the formula is in order with the series.

Entertaining Read

I always enjoy reading about Sam and Remi's latest adventures and the many things that happen to them. This is a good, entertaining read that is definitely worth the reader's time. The book will uplift and make the reader smile throughout.

Very enjoyable

Another great Cussler story. I love the mix of history and modern adventure he puts into his stories. The Ebook experience was great - no eye fatigue and It was wonderful not to have to mark my place and put down my book every time the dog wanted out.

it's great to have the real Sam and Remi back

Very happy to get the very capable Remi and her loving husband back. The constantly complaining Remi in the last two books would put anyone off. This was a fun and enjoyable adventure with two people who clearly value each other as well as being deeply in love. So refreshing.
