{"product_id":"south-china-sea-colum-fitzroy-9781451584110","title":"South China Sea: A Novel of Modern Piracy","description":"The truly gut-wrenching piracy action of the last fifty years has been in the heavily-trafficked waters off the shores of Hong Kong, Malaysia, Macao, Taiwan, the Philippines, Viet Nam -- the South China Sea. When modern pirate Finn Morrison hooks up with the Red Chinese to hijack a cargo ship loaded with gold - and highly explosive ammonium nitrate - all hell breaks loose. Double-crossed by the Chinese and left for dead, Morrison works out a deal with the U.S. Navy to recover the stolen ship and the gold. But it's an uneasy truce: Morrison is forced to work with his hated half-brother, Jake Donovan, a Hong Kong-based insurance investigator whose current recovery job has landed him in the middle of Morrison's schemes. With the Navy preoccupied with a renegade Chinese gunboat, Morrison, Donovan, and the remaining pirates storm the cargo ship, battle heavily-armed commandos determined to get the gold to Chinese waters, and eventually secure the ship, only to make deadly discovery: a fanatical terrorist's sabotage has turned the vessel into an explosives-packed, out-of-control juggernaut steaming toward Hong Kong harbor. Can it be stopped before an unprecedented disaster occurs? With high seas piracy now a serious global issue, South China Sea - comprehensively researched, suspenseful and action-packed from beginning to end - is utterly right for the times.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Colum Fitzroy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1451584113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781451584110\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/28\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.80d","brand":"Colum Fitzroy","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48458396565759,"sku":"9781451584110","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_32a7f0b3-8bbc-400a-a701-aa811d1b3b7b.jpg?v=1777404178","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/south-china-sea-colum-fitzroy-9781451584110","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
