'The Spy' by Clive Cussler

Cussler’s novel 'The Spy'-published in 2011- is set about 100 years earlier circa 1908-1911. A private detective with the Van Dorn Agency navigates through Hells Kitchen and international espionage. With Cussler’s erudite prose Isaac Bell is something like an early 20th century Jason Bourne, Sherlock Holmes and Simon Templar in one defending America against some of the world’s more wicked forces.

Mr. Cussler has written another enjoyable book reading quickly, like those pre-war years, through industrial and technical development leading to the first world war.
