Primera edición.

"1910. Clyde Lynds, inventor de una nueva y revolucionaria máquina de cine sonoro, se dirige a Estados Unidos a bordo del Mauretania, el transatlántico más veloz del mundo. En plena travesía Lynds descubre que no ha conseguido librarse de sus perseguidores alemanes, que intentarán secuestrarlo en mitad del océano. Pero no cuentan con que Isaac Bell, el famoso jefe de la agencia de detectives Van Dorn, navega en el mismo barco. No obstante, el enemigo de Lynds es capaz de perseguirlo por el país entero. Es un hombre infatigable que se oculta bajo innumerables disfraces. Un espía respaldado por todo un imperio. Nuevamente Isaac Bell será el responsable de averiguar quién es y qué pretende realmente ese hombre, y detenerlo antes de que sea demasiadotarde, porque quien controle en los años venideros la industria del cine controlará la cultura popular, el mundo de los negocios y probablemente la historia de la humanidad." --Page 4 of cover.
"On the ocean liner Mauretania, two European scientists with a dramatic new invention are barely rescued from abduction by the Van Dorn Detective Agency's intrepid chief investigator, Isaac Bell. Unfortunately, they are not so lucky the second time. The thugs attack again-and this time one of the scientists dies. What are they holding that is so precious? Only something that will revolutionize business and popular culture-and perhaps something more. For war clouds are looming, and a ruthless espionage agent has spotted a priceless opportunity to give the Germans an edge. It is up to Isaac Bell to figure out who he is, what he is up to, and stop him. But he may already be too late. and the future of the world may just hang in the balance.
