As the group puts together the pieces of the age-old puzzle, it becomes clear that they're being monitored. As they prepare to dive and find an unlikely and completely unexpected problem blocking the site, their adversaries move in to make sure that any treasure makes it into their hands.

While he's pretty concerned about keeping the evidence of Atlantis safe, Jack has gotten caught up in a disaster that could have global repercussions. Can he and Katya and the rest of their elite team solve the Atlantis mystery and save the world?

This archeological, sea-going adventure was likened on the cover to THE DA VINCI CODE and Clive Cussler's work. I'd say a definite yes, as I am an avid reader of both. I would caution you that the author, who is a real-life underwater archeologist and expert doesn't stint on details -- be prepared for a history lesson that leaves you determined, in the end, to do a little exploring of your own to find out what was true and what was enhanced for the sake of fiction. (That part definitely is reminiscent of Da Vinci!) I would say that the romantic interest seems to be tossed in to appease an editor -- not written with much feeling or believability. But ATLANTIS is an excellent book in the adventure genre; a fascinating look at the Atlantis legend and some good adventure writing. A definite recommend for this debut author. I hope to see more.
