Pirates Inc (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781511956512)

Piracy on the high seas has returned after a lapse of three hundred years. The number of pirate attacks has risen dramatically since then. Modern piracy ranges from petty larceny at sea, to highly organized syndicates pirating ships for multi-million-dollar cargoes. One of the most sophisticated and dangerous form of piracy is carried out by syndicates in South East Asia. This corporate-style organization of the syndicates is impressive. Ships can be hijacked to order. Once a ship has been targeted, the crew's fate hangs in the balance. KC Wong of the Singapore Marine Police, is designated the task of stamping out pirate attacks in South East Asia. His quest takes him across the Pacific Rim, where he teams up with Stewart Mackintosh and Vicky Chandler of the Canadian Mounted Police. Read this and you enter a world of greed and corruption, murder and intrigue, where human suffering and violent death don't figure in the equation to accumulate great wealth by ruthless men who follow in the footsteps of their seventeenth century counterparts.
