Publisher Description

Clive cussler is back with a stand-alone novel that "cranks up a head of steam and some high speed thrills."

"This has become my favorite Clive Cussler book. Isaac Bell is a character that rivals the top characters in fiction today, his nemesis Cromwell is both evil and totally entertaining, a perfect match for Bell. Through non-stop action and a serious look into Bell's own creation, this is a total package of adventure, excitement and plain old good reading. The train theme is wonderful, bringing flashbacks to mind of the Wild, Wild West train from the TV show of the same name, while the setting of San Francisco is refreshing as you go from hill to hill and Cromwell's mansion and bank to an earthquake that changes everything. This is a must read for any Clive Cussler fan."

    " See, I knew there was a reason I should never, ever, have picked up a Clive Cussler book. I couldn't put the %$#@! thing down, and now I'll have to read the avalanche of novels the man has written. Sigh. They aren't high literature, and I know all the hooks he's using to suck you in- stunningly attractive main characters, good guy always right, alomst dies (at least twice) but manages to pull through albiet with a few major injuries, a romance or two, some self sacrifice, and a really, really despicable villian. Now, I've only read one of this guys books, but be honest with me, they are all like this aren't they? And yet I feel compelled to read more... "

    " Quite a good adventure novel about a bank owner who leads a double life as a bank robber, using a luxury railcar to escape his pursuers, and the hotshot detective who is trying to capture him. A bit unlikely, but a lot of fun if you dont take it too seriously. Good for a long plane trip. "
