The Race --- by Clive Cussler with Justin Scott. There’s a reason they call a novel like this a thriller. It,s because the action comes fast and furious. The year is 1910 and there’s a continent-spanning airplane race to be won. Sabotage, murder, plane crashes and dastardly criminals all figure in the story. And most importantly there’s Josephine, the aviatrix who is America’s odds-on favorite to win and Isaac Bell, detective par-excellence who is charged keeping her safe and sound. Like all of Cussler’s novels this one too virtually reads itself. Amusing, entertaining and, oh yes, thrilling.
