Die Titanic-Verschwörung

The gripping prequel to Clive Cussler's first super bestseller "Raise the Titanic!".As a young naval engineer, Dirk Pitt, now director of NUMA, achieved perhaps his greatest triumph: the salvage of the Titanic. But at the same time it was a defeat, because the rare element Byzanium, which should have been on board, was not there.1911: The deaths of nine people lead detective Isaac Bell on the trail of a world-spanning conspiracy. Byzanium, a new element with unique properties, has been discovered, and unscrupulous criminals will stop at nothing to control it. Bell sees only one way to stop them and stop the killing: He must take possession of the Byzanium himself and hide it from the conspirators forever. He makes a daring plan - and the maiden voyage of the equally gigantic and luxurious passenger ship RMS Titanic comes just in time for him to do so.
