| Plot Summary of The Trojan Odyssey |
"Dirk Pitt and his long-lost children twins Dirk and Summer join forces in this action-packed adventure/thriller. When a brown tide is infesting the waters near the shore of Nicarauga, NUMA sends the twins to investigate. Two things happen during this investigation: Sommer uncovers an ancient artifact that should, according to all historical knowledge, should be impossible to be at that location; and they discover they are in the path of a huge hurricane.
This is just the beginning of a plot to change the world as we know it. It will take Dirk, Al, Sandecker, the twins, and all the rest of the crew to stop an evil mastermind from spreading destruction.
