Clive Cussler Ghost Soldier
Book 18 of the Oregon Files series
An attack on Nigerian troops using American weapons sends Juan Cabrillo and the Oregon crew in search of a mysterious arms dealer known only as the Vendor. The investigation carries them from Afghanistan to Kuala Lumpur, where Cabrillo discovers that the Vendor does more than traffic in advanced weapons—he invents them. Going undercover puts Cabrillo inside a lethal competition designed to test an artificial-intelligence-driven arsenal against some of the world’s most dangerous mercenaries. To survive, he must identify the Vendor, understand the new technology, and keep it from changing the balance of modern warfare.
