Arctic Gold

Deep Black, Book 7

De: Stephen Coonts, William H. Keith

Narrado por: Phil Gigante

Out of the cold....

In the Arctic, two American intelligence operatives are kidnapped while investigating Russian submarines - a constant, covert presence beneath the ice caps. In Washington, ex-Marine Charlie Dean and his team at Desk Three trace the abduction back to the Russian mafia, who have their sights set on the massive reserves of oil that lie thousands of feet below the ocean's floor.

...into the line of fire.

While Dean is sent to the Arctic to rescue the hostages, the beautiful Lia Francesca penetrates a heavily guarded dacha on the shores of the Black Sea. There she learns the explosive truth about Russia and its Arctic oil - one that could cost Dean and his Deep Black team their lives...and drive the world's superpowers to the brink of war.

A good read with a great ending

Overall I enjoyed this book. I enjoyed it more and more as it got closer to the end. The down side of it was that even into the middle, it was in large like a documentry. Then it switched into gear and was an all out thriller right to the end. It is definately a page turner! If you are into spy thrillers, you will enjoy this one.

Any additional comments?

I got tired of the non stop Latitude and Longitude updates with 12:43 UTC - 6 hours. That got HIGHLY annoying.

Not one of his best books

The plot in this book is good and the characters are ok. Every time the story changes a location which is often, the author put in the time date and GPS location. Sometimes this would occur every couple of minutes. It really distracted from the story.

Best Coonts yet!

This one is packed with action and gives a nice glimpse into aspects of geopolitics few people are focused on, but should be. Refreshingly, the characters act out of a moral certainty uncommon in the world today (literature included). Enlightens as it entertains. I often wonder how Coonts knows this stuff!
