Deadly Coast

By R.E. McDermott

FANS OF CLIVE CUSSLER, DAN BROWN, AND TOM CLANCY WILL LOVE THIS LIGHTNING-PACED TALE OF MODERN PIRACY, INSPIRED BY TRUE EVENTS.A pirate attack on the high seas......a deadly bio-weapon ready to detonate... ...and the man who can stop it, watching helplessly on a screen at home.When one of Dugan's ships is hijacked by murderous Somali pirates, he's not feeling too diplomatic, but he swallows his rage, puts the well-being of his crew first, and negotiates.But a tenuous link between the pirates and terrorism prompts both the US and UK governments to halt negotiations and freeze Dugan's assets, leaving him to play a desperate cat-and-mouse game with the increasingly enraged pirates, all the while pleading with the intransigent authorities to allow him to resume legitimate negotiations.The cold-blooded murder of one of his crewmen broadcast live on the internet is the last straw, and Dugan defies the authorities to lead a rag-tag band of improbable heroes on a rescue mission of last resort, only to discover there is far, far, more at stake than he ever realized.NOTE: ALL THE TOM DUGAN THRILLERS ARE STANDALONE STORIES. THEY MAY BE READ IN ANY ORDER.
