Blue gold a novel from the NUMA files

An investigation into the sudden deaths of rare whales leads Kurt Austin, National Underwater & Marine Agency crew leader, to the Mexican coast where someone tries to put him and his mini-sub permanently out of commission. Meanwhile, in South America's lush hills, a murderous cadre of biopirates is intent on stealing medicinal secrets worth millions. Soon Austin realises they're working the opposite ends of the same grand scheme. By monopolizing the earth's vastly depleted freshwater reserves a Californian agribusiness tycoon is poised to rise to power, and ultimately to dominate the world.

Overuse and pollution have drained most of its fresh water, and scientist Francesca Carval's brilliant formula for desalination has vanished with her plane over South America. But when Kurt Austin and his NUMA team come across a pod of dead whales, their investigation takes them to the Venezuelan jungle where a cadre is bent on controlling the world's supply of fresh water."@en
