#5 in the “MAXIM GUNN” series.

Was the really such a place as Atlantis? And was there a super race ahead of its time, or something so different we wouldn't want to know? Trapped for thousands of years beneath the ocean until a submarine earthquake frees them, a few survivors emerge on a mission of revenge against the “Dry Landers” whom they blame for the Great Catastrophe. Kidnappings, blackmail and a threat to detonate a stolen nuclear warhead near a Scottish nuclear submarine base keep Gunn fighting to stop them - and the world will never know how close they came to success.
