This is a beautiful gift copy.

Centuries ago, Genghis Khan's empire stretched from the Pacific Ocean to the Caspian Sea. His conquests are legend, his tomb a forgotten mystery -- until now. When Dirk Pitt is nearly killed rescuing an oil survey team an Russia's Lake Baikal, it appears a simple act of nature. However, when the survey team is abducted and Pitt's research vessel is nearly sunk, it's obvious there's something more sinister involved. All trails lead to Mongolia, and a mysterious mogul who is conducting covert deals for the Chinese while wreaking havoc on global oil markets by utilizing a secret technology. The Mongolian dreams of restoring Genghis Khan's empire -- and holds a dark secret that just might give him the wealth and power to turn his dream into a global nightmare . . .
