About this listen

Isaac Bell is back in this thrilling new novel from the number-one New York Times best-selling grand master of adventure, Clive Cussler.

It is 1906, and in New York City, the Italian crime group known as the Black Hand is on a spree: kidnapping, extortion, arson. Detective Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn Agency is hired to form a special Black Hand Squad, but the gangsters appear to be everywhere - so much so that Bell begins to wonder if there are imitators, criminals using the name for the terror effect. And then the murders begin, each one of a man more powerful than the last, and, as Bell discovers to his dismay, the ultimate target may be the most powerful man of all.

Critic reviews

“Cussler has written another wonderful historical thriller. The action is fast and thoroughly enjoyable.” (Library Journal)

“This latest Bell thriller combines a vivid historical environment with a top-notch story and enjoyable, realistic characters. Bell, the detective whose nimble intellect often gets him out of tight situations, is one of Cussler’s most engaging protagonists, and the series...remains fresh and exciting." (Booklist)

Glad For a New Co Author

I love this series and this co-author is good make no mistake. But I do prefer the new co-author Jack Debul, as this author is a little wordy and a good editor would’ve cut it down about an 1 hour worth of listening material. I’m not nuts about the other two series that Clive wrote so I will take anything from the Isaac Bell series. Good entertainment, lots of good characters and always a good mystery. It’s clean and entertaining. I don’t feel you have to listen to the series in order as the authors go back in time to develop a new story so they to jump around in the timeline.
So read the publisher summary and pick out a story or a timeframe that you think is interesting if you were first time listener to this series. You won’t be disappointed and sure enough you’ll buy them all just like I did.
Where are my comment?

Scott Brick is the best!

Another classic from Mr. Cussler. Love this series. I am a history buff. Learning a lot about the early 1900's America

Entertaining brain candy

Yes, it is silly but a great book to listen to while relaxing on a beach or on a long car trip. The plot is improbable but you didn't pick this for hard hitting realism.
