Sahara

The usual mix from Clive Cussler with the heroes Dirk Pitt and Al Giordino as they head off to the desert in this adventure. A couple of side plots as they go from scrape to scrape.
Gets quite tense towards the end. The only thing that grates is Pitt and Giordino's quips/attempts at humour in the face of overwhelming odds, which crop up quite often.
