A Ravel of Waters

From NY Times and International bestselling author Geoffrey Jenkins comes a thrill-packed adventure novel that could tip the balance of global power. For fans of Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt adventures.

Jetwind is the most technically advanced wind-powered sailing ship ever built...in the nuclear age governments are prepared to murder in order to possess it...

PASSAGE TO DANGER.
Jetwind is magnificent. The revolutionary computerized sailing ship, swifter than the fastest clipper, will rule the seas-if she can break the speed records from South America to the South African Cape...

But her maiden voyage through the icy South Atlantic becomes a nightmare of terror. Her captain is murdered, her journey is sabotaged by a fanatic nationalist, and both the Russians and the Americans watch her with too much interest.

Her new Captain, lone yachtsman Peter Rainer, must find out why-or lose both Jetwind and the woman he loves-and become an unwilling pawn in an orchestrated international incident...
