The Race

Detective Isaac Bell returns, in the remarkable new adventure from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author.

It is 1910, the age of flying machines is still in its infancy, and newspaper publisher Preston Whiteway is offering $50,000 for the first daring aviator to cross America in less than fifty days. He is even sponsoring one of the prime candidates-an intrepid woman named Josephine Frost-and that's where Bell, chief investigator for the Van Dorn Detective Agency, comes in.

Frost's violent-tempered husband has just killed her lover and tried to kill her, and he is bound to make another attempt. Bell has tangled with Harry Frost before; he knows that the man has made his millions leading gangs of thieves, murderers, and thugs in every city across the country. He also knows that Frost won't be only after his wife, but after Whiteway as well. And if Bell takes the case . . . Frost will be after him, too.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Bell just keeps getting more interesting. Cussler is turning out some of his best work.” —Booklist

What a journey across America!

Ups and downs with twists and turns. This flying adventure was full of great action and the love of air flight. Great story of the up and coming new thrill, Airplanes!

Isaac Bell Again Delights

The Isaac Bell series is my favorite of all the Clive Cussler books. Although 'The Race' was not my absolute favorite of the Isaac Bell books, it was still totally entertaining.

OK... but the bar is set so high

I am a huge cussler fan and have read all his books. in this series the wrecker was awesome. I am going to love every book Cussler writes so the bar is set high. Maybe too high in this case. Is it a fun read, yes, would I recommend it, of course, but its not the first book I am going to listen to if I had my choice of all the cussler Issac Bell books.

Excellent

This book was excellent. The story was just good as his first Isaac Bell novel.

non-stop

Great story non-stop action. I love the setting of the time period, makes me feel like I'm right there.
