År 327 lämnar en romersk galär hamn med en ovanlig last ombord. Galären utsätts för en piratattack och undkommer med en hårsmån. År 1916 exploderar ett brittiskt krigsfartyg och sjunker i Nordsjön. I nutid skakas Turkiet och Egypten av en serie attacker mot moskéer. Finns ett samband mellan dessa händelser?Ett antal stulna historiska artefakter som dyker upp i Turkiet och Israel sätter Dirk Pitt och hans team från NUMA på spåret.

Gyllene buddha är den första delen i serien Oregonarkiven där vi får möta Cusslers nye actionhjälte Juan Cabrillo - fartyget "Oregons" mycket karismatiske kapten.
Bara en man av Cabrillos kaliber kan förvandla ett gammalt lastfartyg till en flytande spioncentral utrustad med högteknologiska avlyssningsapparater och avancerade vapensystem - och bara han klarar de farliga uppdrag som "Oregons" besättning tar sig an.
Nu har de fått i uppdrag av CIA att sätta punkt för den kinesiska ockupationen av Tibet och återge landet till Dalai Lama. Ett till synes omöjligt uppdrag, men Cabrillos trumfkort är den flera hundra år gamla buddhastaty av massivt guld som kommer att få en avgörande roll i det politiska spelet kring bergslandet.
Först måste han dock hitta statyn. Sedan återstår för Cabrillo och hans besättning att överlista två av världens mäktigaste länder, för det ligger i både Rysslands och Kinas intresse att de misslyckas med uppdraget…
