Raise the Titanic by Clive Cussler
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Cussler is hard to beat' Daily Mail DEEP UNDER THE WAVES, A MISSION TO A LEGENDARY MARITIME DISASTER . . . The President's secret task force has developed an unprecedented defensive weapon that relies on an extremely rare radioactive element - and Dirk Pitt has followed a twisted trail to a secret cache of the substance. Two and a half miles beneath the icy North Atlantic, the mighty Titanic holds the key to the safety of the free world.
