A #1 New York Times best-selling author, Clive Cussler never fails to deliver the goods. In The Race, the year is 1910, and wealthy newspaper magnate Preston Whiteway has put up $50,000 for the first aviator to cross America in fewer than 50 days. Josephine Frost takes up the challenge and has more than enough moxie to claim the prize. But when her husband murders her lover, and then goes after her, Josephine will need the help of Detective Isaac Bell if she's to avoid the ultimate crash and burn.

      Set in 1909, bestseller Cussler and Scott's nifty fourth adventure thriller starring Isaac Bell, ace detective with the Van Dorn Detective Agency (the company motto: "We never give up. Never"), focuses on airplanes. The previous three outings featured locomotives (The Chase and The Wrecker) and a submarine (The Spy). Bell must protect Josephine Frost, an aviatrix competing in the Whiteway Atlantic-to-Pacific Cross-Country Air Race, from her deranged ex-husband, Harry Frost, who's trying to kill her for various complicated reasons. Sabotage among the flying pioneers competing for a $50,000 prize for the first one to cross America in 50 days is rampant. A number of subplots provide twists, but it's the battle between the handsome, daring Bellâ"His frame was whipcord lean"âand the hulking, diabolical psychopath Frost that will keep readers turning the pages. Evocative period detail, brave men and women and their fabulous flying machines, and nonstop action add up to plenty of fun.
