Unfortunately I wasn’t a big fan of this book. I love the Sam and Remi adventures, but they decided to weave in a “diary reading” device to tell backstory on the car and it was told in first person. The bouncing between 1st and 3rd was just tedious as I didn’t find the diary portions all that interesting (basically they weren’t needed for the main plot). I was hoping it would redeem in the end and there would be this moment where I would realize where the treasure was because it was “in the diary pages” like they said it would be. That didn’t happen. Also, Isaac Bell was a character in the backstory and it felt like a marketing attempt to get me interested in that line of books.

I enjoyed reading this book as I have reading all of Clive Cusslers other books. I enjoyed the new characters in this book and will continue reading his books.

This is probably the worst Clive Cussler I have ever read. And that is just about all of them. No sense of place, plot, pace or character

Couldn’t put it down.
