The striker - Clive Cussler

The Striker is the sixth novel in Clive Cussler's Isaac Bell series.

It
is 1902, and a bright, inexperienced young man named Isaac Bell, only two years
out of his apprenticeship at the Van Dorn Detective Agency, has an urgent
message for his boss. Hired to hunt for radical unionist saboteurs in the coal
mines, he is witness to a terrible accident.
And it begins to become clear that
the trouble doesn't stop with the men he's
looking for.
Much bigger stakes are in
play.

Little does he know just how big . Given exactly one
week to prove his case, Bell quickly finds himself pitted against two of the
most ruthless opponents he has ever known, men of staggering ambition and
cold-bloodedness . . . who are not about to let some wet-behind-the-ears
detective stand in their way.

In The Striker we meet Isaac
Bell early in his career in an adventure
that would show him just how dangerous and exciting his chosen
profession would turn out to be.

From the master of adventure and action and creator of the Dirk Pitt Adventure series comes The Striker, the sixth exciting installment in the Isaac Bell detective series. Following The Thief and The Race, The Striker is another nail-biting, action-packed historical thriller from Top 10 bestselling author Clive Cussler.
