Fire Ice (NUMA Series, Book #3) by Clive Cussler and Paul Kemprecos
In the heart of the old Soviet Union, a mining tycoon has declared himself tsar of Russia. Claiming Romanov ancestry and backed by millions of dollars, he is determined to overthrow the Russian government -- while distracting the U.S. with a man-made disaster. All along America's eastern seaboard lie pockets of methane hydrate -- a notoriously unstable compound known as "fire ice."
Detonation of this compound could create a tidal wave big enough to destroy a major city. But there's one thing this power-hungry madman didn't count on: Kurt Austin and his Special Assignments team are about to make a few waves of their own.
