CHASE, THE by Clive Cussler - SIGNED & NUMBERED LIMITED EDITION BOOK
See all titles by Clive Cussler.
For decades, Clive Cussler has been delighting readers with novels filled
with suspense, action, and sheer audacity. Now he does it again, in one
of the wildest, most entertaining historical thrillers in years.
April 1950: The rusting hulk of a steam locomotive rises from the deep waters
of a Montana lake. Inside is all that remains of three men who died
forty-four years before. But it is not the engine or its grisly
contents that interest the people watching nearby. It is what is about
to come next . . .
For two years, the western states of America have been suffering an
extraordinary crime spree: a string of bank robberies by a single man
who cold-bloodedly murders any and all witnesses and then vanishes
without a trace. Fed up by the depredations of the "Butcher Bandit,"
the U.S. government brings in the best man they can find-a tall, lean,
no-nonsense detective named Isaac Bell, who has caught thieves and
killers coast to coast.
But Bell has never had a challenge like this one. From Arizona to Colorado to
the streets of San Francisco during its calamitous earthquake and fire,
he pursues what is quickly becoming clear to him is the sharpest
criminal mind he has ever encountered, and the woman who seems to hold
the key to the bandit's identity. Using science, deduction, and
intuition, Bell repeatedly draws near only to grasp at thin air, but at
least he knows his pursuit is having an effect. Because his quarry is
getting angry now, and has turned the chase back on him. The hunter has
become the hunted. And soon it will take all of Isaac Bell's skills not
merely to prevail . . . but to survive.
Filled with intricate plotting, dazzling signature set pieces, andnot one but
two extraordinary villains, this is the work of a master writing at the
height of his powers.
