The legendary
Sargasso Sea and Devil's Triangle disclose new mysteries as Tom Swift searches
for a pirated space probe bearing a priceless payload--cometary matter from the
dawn of our solar system. The quest takes an eerie turn when Tom's new
detection device reveals an inexplicable gravitational anomaly that may be a
fantastic seacraft a half-mile wide! To pursue the undersea search in the
jngles of Sargasso weed, the young inventor must perfect his electronic
hydrolung and jet-thrust diversuit, which provide deep divers with the freedom
and mobility of true marine animals. Yet looming over the project is a
desperate plea for Tom's help in preventing a political assassination on the
island of Mer-Soleil, a nation in upheaval. No sooner have Tom and his pal Bud
braved the acid-oozing vegetation of the sea floor than an astonishing secret
is brought to light--clue to a cosmic event of unimaginable violence that not
only changed the face of our world, but of human history as well!
