Book excerpt: A mining operation could lead to an international incident: “I admire Philip Atlee’s writing tremendously.” —Raymond Chandler Off the coast of Indonesia, the Japanese are harvesting an incredible amount of manganese, a mineral highly prized in the manufacturing community, from the ocean floor. The question is: how are they getting it—and how can the United States get a piece of it? The only man for the job is Joe Gall, but this seemingly simple assignment is about to go sideways . . . This twist-filled adventure comes from the Edgar Award–nominated author who’s been called “the John D. MacDonald of espionage fiction” (Larry McMurtry, The New York Times).
