  • "May 1914. Two top diplomats hurry home by sea and rail, each carrying a document of world-changing importance. Then the liner Empress of India is sunk in a collision, and the Manhattan-Line express plunges from a shattered bridge - both dragging their VIP passengers to watery oblivion. Tragic coincidence - or conspiracy? Seventy-five years later, a chance revelation reopens the question. In the energy-starved fear-torn 1980s, those long-lost papers could destroy whole nations, and Dirk Pitt confronts his biggest challenge yet."

  • "A long-lost secret treaty becomes the top prize in a contest between Pitt and England's top agent."
  • "In May 1914, both copies of a secret treaty between the USA and Great Britain are apparently lost forever - one in a shipwreck and the other in a train which fell into a river after the collapse of a bridge. The treaty promised a huge sum of money to Great Britain, to be paid during the First World War, in return for which Canada would be given up to the USA after the war's end. The American President wants the treaty - whatever the cost. Dirk Pitt is out to retrieve it, but his enemies, the Russian-backed Quebec Libre, will do anything to stop him."
  • "Rescueing a vital document for the United State-a daring mission. Possession of this document is worth billions. To Great Britian it's worth a war. Dirk Pitt races toward an underwater clash."@en
  • "Feuilleton d'aventures axées sur un argument de politique-fiction. La redécouverte, en 1989, d'un traité conclu en 1914 entre les Etats-Unis et la Grande-Bretagne dans lequel cette dernière vendait le Canada pour un milliard. Toutes les scènes qui ont lieu à Ottawa et à Québec (où l'indépendance finit par triompher) encourent la même impression fallacieuse que la traduction de James Bay, Quebec Hydro ou Louis Reil (sic). Mais ne boudons pas un récit à la narrativité dynamique où, dès la page 36, le lecteur a mille morts sur la conscience à cause d'un naufrage, de la disparition d'un train et d'un avion qui s'écrase."
  • "In 1989 ontdekt een jonge vrouw gegevens die wijzen op het bestaan van een verdrag tussen Engeland en de Verenigde Staten uit 1914; deze ontdekking zet de Amerikaanse en Britse geheime dienst aan tot een grootscheepse jacht naar het verdwenen document."
  • "Dirk Pitt must descend to the bottom of the Hudson River to recover a copy of the secret North American Treaty signed in 1914, but Great Britain is racing to find and destroy the same document."
