The world's oil supply is dwindling, the stock market is crashing, and a historical mystery may hold the key to the future. The NUMA crew faces a race against time to solve it. After an explosion in the Gulf of Mexico destroys three oil rigs, Kurt Austin and the NUMA Special Projects Team are called upon by the President to investigate. Their search leads them to a brilliant billionaire in alternative energy, whose ambition is to end the oil age with her company's advanced fuel-cell systems. However, questions arise about whether she is an environmental champion or a rogue genetic engineer. The team uncovers that the oil fields are infected with a bacteria consuming oil before it can be extracted, a strain lost decades ago when two submarines disappeared in the Mediterranean.

This thrilling adventure promises exotic locations, ruthless villains, and narrow escapes, delivering the excitement that fans have come to expect from the master of adventure.
