Quick Overview
An ancient relic belonging to a long-lost Confederate ship named the Shenandoah find itself in the hands of treasure hunters Sam and Remi Fargo. But there is something strange about this artefact, and so the Fargos set off on a race to uncover the mysterious wreck and with it, the truth. Unknown to them, a much more powerful force is engaged in the same chase. A fast-rising Mexican political party, whose members are directly descended from Aztec royalty, is intent on finding that ship as well. Legend has it that somewhere aboard is a secret. A secret that will either guarantee their success, or destroy them forever. From Africa, to England, to the rainforests of New Guinea, to the windswept Kuril Islands, to the legendary site of the 1883 Krakatoa explosion, to the heart of the Mexican jungles, the Fargos and their ruthless opponents pursue the hunt - but only one of them can win. And the penalty for failure is death. Visit clivecussler.com.au for more Sign up to the Cussler Down Under e-newsletter

How we describe the condition of our books

We are very proud of the condition of the books we sell (please read our testimonials to find out more!)

New: Exactly as it says.

As New: Pretty much new but shows small signs of having been read; inside it will be clean without any inscriptions or stamps; might contain a remainder mark.

Very Good: Might have some creases on the spine; no hard cracks; maybe slight forward lean and short inscription inside; perhaps very minor bumping on the corners of the book; inside clean but the page edges might be slightly yellowed.

Good: A few creases on the spine, perhaps a forward lean, bumping on corners or shelfwear; maybe an inscription inside or some shelfwear or a small tear or two on the dustjacket; inside clean but page edges might be somewhat yellowed.

Fair: In overall good condition, might have a severe forward lean to the spine, an inscription, bumping to corners; one or two folds on the covers and yellowed pages; in exceptional cases these books might contain some library stamps and stickers or have neat sticky tape which was used to fix a short, closed tear.

Poor: We rarely sell poor condition books, unless the books are in demand and difficult to find in a better condition. Poor condition books are still perfect for a good read, all pages will be intact and none threatening to fall out; most probably a reading copy only.
