Depths of Intrigue: Exploring Medusa by Clive Cussler

Have you ordered your copy of X Marks the Past, the latest Reg Rawlins paranormal mystery and adventure book? Don’t miss out! There are two more Reg Rawlins books coming soon!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

I am currently reading Medusa by Clive Cussler. Clive Cussler’s NUMA Files are a thrilling blend of adventure, science, and historical intrigue. I always enjoy his books for the deep science and rollicking adventure. Lots of mortal peril at the intersection of science geeks and hard-hitting espionage.

Dirk Pitt, often finds himself in high-stakes situations that merge cutting-edge technology with deep-sea exploration, reflecting Cussler’s own passion for marine archaeology. In his books, Dirk works for NUMA (National Underwater and Marina Agency) a fictional government agency dedicated to ocean exploration, marine archaeology, and underwater research. But did you know that he himself is known for his expertise in marine archaeology and has a deep interest in oceanic exploration? In 1979 he founded the real-life NUMA (National Underwater and Marine Agency) to promote maritime research and conservation efforts. Through it, he has been involved in various underwater expeditions and has contributed to the discovery of several shipwrecks.

Medusa was published in 2009, but you might find some familiar themes… China, pandemic, racing to develop a vaccine to control a virus that is galloping through the world population. This fictional pandemic is a reappearance of the Spanish Influenza that killed 25-50 million people in the 1918-19 epidemic. But they do try to keep it under wraps, saying that it is the coronavirus SARS.

The past cannot be changed, but the future is in our hands.

Clive Cussler, Medusa

Summary

In the Micronesian Islands, a top secret, U.S. government– sponsored undersea lab conducting vital biomedical research on a rare jellyfish known as the Blue Medusa suddenly . . . disappears. At the same time, off Bermuda, a bathysphere is attacked by an underwater vehicle and left helpless a half mile below the surface, its passengers—including Zavala—left to die. Only Kurt Austin’s heroic measures save them from a watery grave, but, suspecting a connection, Austin puts the NUMA team on the case. He has no idea what he’s just gotten them all into.

A hideous series of medical experiments . . . an extraordinarily ambitious Chinese criminal organization . . . a secret new virus that threatens to set off a worldwide pandemic. Austin and Zavala have been in tight spots before, but this time it’s not just their own skins they’re trying to save—it’s the lives of millions.

Filled with the high-stakes suspense and boundless invention unique to Cussler, Medusa is the most thrilling novel yet from the grand master of adventure.
