A timeless classic of modern-day piracy, from the acclaimed master of action and suspense
Aboard the SS Campari, all is not well.
For Johnny Carter, the chief officer, the voyage has already begun badly; but it's only when the Campari sails that evening after a succession of delays that he realizes something is seriously wrong.
A member of the crew is suddenly missing, and the stern-to-stern search only serves to increase tension. Then violence erupts, and suddenly the whole ship is in danger.
Is the Campari a victim of modern day piracy? And what of the strange cargo hidden below the decks?
