Clive Cussler's 2006 Dirk Pitt adventure. A freak wave nearly kills Pitt on Siberia's Lake Baikal, drawing him into the schemes of a ruthless Mongolian tycoon who controls oil, earthquakes - and a secret worth killing for. The trail runs across the steppes to Ulaanbaatar and into the Gobi, in search of the lost tomb and untold treasure of Genghis Khan himself.
