In October 1943, a U.S. destroyer sailed out of Philadelphia and supposedly vanished, the result of a Navy experiment with electromagnetic radiation. The story was considered a hoax-but now Juan Cabrillo and his Oregon colleagues aren't so sure.There is talk of a new weapon soon to be sold, something very dangerous to America's interests, and the rumors link it to the great inventor Nikola Tesla, who was working with the Navy when he died in 1943. Was he responsible for the experiment? Are his notes in the hands of enemies?As Cabrillo races to find the truth, he discovers there is even more at stake than he could have imagined-but by the time he realizes it, he may already be too late...

I really liked this book much better than the last few of this series. Some of his action scenes in some of his other books are so technical that it's hard for me to visualize the scenes but this one I had no problem with his descriptions. I found the plot to be very interesting and I liked learning about the Philadelphia Experiment and Nikola Tesla's inventions. His books are real page-turners and this one did not disappoint. I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series and I would highly recommend this book to those who like history and action books.
