Detective Isaac Bell receives an assignment to investigate a deadly accident at Little Angel Mine in 1911 Colorado. Nine people died in the unexplained tragedy, and Bell must determine what really happened. His investigation uncovers a rare element with extraordinary properties and enormous value. Powerful people want to control this substance and will kill to get it. Bell discovers the stakes extend far beyond a single mine disaster. A century later, Dirk Pitt makes a dangerous rescue from an old submersible near New York City. His reward is a document that Isaac Bell left behind decades earlier. The document reveals secrets about the most famous ship disaster in history. Bell and Pitt work across time to solve mysteries that connect a Colorado mine to the Titanic itself.
