Skyring water [large print] : a novel / Louis L'Amour and Beau L'Amour.

Summary:

1961. The world is on the brink of nuclear war. Walls are dividing East and West. Empires are crumbling. And in Barcelona, chaos is unleashed when a rogue officer of the East German STASI attempts to blackmail a pair of struggling arms dealers. The secret--30 tons of stolen gold hidden in an icebound wilderness at the end of the world. Mike Fowler is a former Navy salvage diver and OSS assassin. Anton Voss is an expatriate German scientist whose past grows darker the closer anyone looks. Once theymight have been enemies, yet the two share an inseparable bond; they have saved one another's lives. But all of that is put at risk when Mike discovers Anton standing over a midnight visitor with a gun in his hand. Now they're on the run, allied with gangsters, pursued by the CIA, Israeli intelligence, and a shadowy cabal bent on creating an invisible empire. The trail leads from the rain-soaked docks of Marseilles to the futuristic towers of Caracas and the ruins of a secret island laboratory in Argentine Patagonia. The only way for Mike Fowler to save his oldest friends, and the woman he loves, is to unlock a decades-old mystery buried in his partner's Nazi past . . . before it destroys them all.
