The Oregon Files
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oregon Files are a group of novels written by author Clive Cussler and co-author Craig Dirgo. The books follow the mysterious "Corporation" and its leader Juan Cabrillo. The "Oregon Files" come from the name of the boat on which the Corporation is based, the Oregon.
Synopsis from Penguin books: Juan Cabrillo is Chairman of the Corporation, a special US Government-sponsored group that operates out of a ship called Oregon, a marvel of scientific research equipment bristling with state-of-the-art weaponry - but disguised as a heap of junk. Cabrillo and his crew of mercenaries with a conscience are able to cross the high seas in their 'rusting' tub unmolested, seeking out those beyond the arms of the law and dealing out justice to any who would plot chaos on a global scale.
