Pacific Vortex! is an action-adventure novel by Clive Cussler. This is the sixth book released featuring the author's primary protagonist, Dirk Pitt, though the author states that this was the first story that he wrote featuring the popular action hero. It was published after much debate, and only published due to his family's support: Cussler states in the Foreword that it not up to his usual standards.
