CIA agent Jake Keller battles Somali pirates and his personal feelings in the latest electrifying thriller from the author of Warning Light.

After years of relative calm, the threat from Somali pirates has increased exponentially. When a couple of American ships get taken, U.S. authorities become determined to find the source of this new danger.

Jake Keller has a plan. It is unconventional, but that is par for the course with Jake. He hopes to lure the mastermind behind these crimes out of hiding by posing as a rival. It is a dangerous plan, made more so by Jake's personal involvement with the beautiful heiress to a Greek shipping fortune. If he is not careful, Jake is as likely to end up as a corpse as he is to uncover his nemesis.
