Black Wind (Dirk Pitt Adventure) 129 reviews
Clive Cussler, Dirk Cussler
Berkley, 2006
Another good story

Sleeping With Fear
+ Enjoyable brain candy with a paranormal flavour!
Excellent book, suspenseful, a definite page turner. This is one of a series of "Fear" books by Kay Hooper. She has become one of my favorite authors as each book I read delivers intrigue, the paranormal, along with a bit of romance. She portrays characters who come to life for the reader. ...
