The plane, bound for the Pacific carrying thirty-six Doomsday Bombs—canisters armed with quick-death germs of unbelievable potency—vanishes. Vixen has in fact crashed into an ice-covered lake in Colorado. 1988: Dirk Pitt, who heroically raised the Titanic , discovers the wreckage of Vixen 03. But two deadly canisters are missing. They’re in the hands of a terrorist group. Their lethal mission: to sail a battleship seventy-five miles up the Potomac and blast Washington, D.C., to kingdom come. Only Dirk can stop them. Review: An all-time classic Cusller gem - Just re-read this book for the third time (first time was in 1986 at the tender age of 11, then again in 2004). Hard-core, vintage Cussler, much more violent, profane, and sexually explicit than the newer, watered-down, PG-level Dirk Pitt books...and ergo much more entertaining. UPDATE AS OF 18SEP2023: I just finished reading “Vixen 03,” which I’ve never done with any other full-length novel. And since I let more than a decade elapse since the last reading, enough details and particulars had faded from my memory that there was a sufficient degree of freshness and surprise. What’s more, I now have an even greater appreciation for plots elements of the novel, thanks to some additional life experiences since the previous reading, namely: (1) touring the actual USS Iowa battleship a half-dozen times;(2) working closely with and befriending a ton of South Africans (blacks, whites, Coloreds, and Indians alike) in my overseas contracting stints; and (3) living and working in “The Beltway,” i.e. the Washington DC Metropolitan area. Review: great book. - Good Book and great service...Thanks ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #187,837 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #981 in Thriller & Suspense Action Fiction #1,073 in Sea Adventures Fiction (Books) #3,064 in Crime Action & Adventure | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,210 Reviews | ## Images ![Vixen 03: A Novel (Dirk Pitt Adventure) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ha6x-h7IL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An all-time classic Cusller gem *by C***R on September 26, 2012* Just re-read this book for the third time (first time was in 1986 at the tender age of 11, then again in 2004).

Unbelievable, as always, but in a nice way. Dirk Pitt is his usual Bond-type self although I prefer his character in later books, once Clive really got to grips with his main man. Perhaps I would have liked more detail in the underwater exploits and less around-the-edge stories. Overall, a really good read which won’t let anyone done. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/10955878-vixen-03-a-novel-dirk-pitt-adventure](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/10955878-vixen-03-a-novel-dirk-pitt-adventure) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-08-14*
