From NY Times and International Bestselling author Geoffrey Jenkins comes a thrill-packed adventure novel that takes readers to the forbidding diamond field coast of northwest South Africa where a race against time takes place to secure one of the rarest minerals known to man, and which can tip the scales of the superpowers in favor of whoever possesses it. For fans of Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt adventure novels.

The discovery of a major source of iridium near the diamond fields of northern South Africa was a deadly secret. For whoever controlled the supply of that rare metal, so essential to strategic weapons development, would have world power at his very fingertips.

Spearheading the mission to retrieve the iridium, with the backing of a North-African power-mad dictator, is Professor Reutemann, a German scientist that knows all too well the metal's worth. Under the guise of establishing a copper mining operation in the inhospitable terrain along the border of South Africa and Namibia, Reutemann hatches his plan to steal the metal.

However, he will first have to deal with a meddling American spy, maritime investigator, and female paleontologist who have become a bit too interested in his operation and the 'unripe gold' he is after.
