Privateer, LLC.

By Justin Lampert, Erik Block, E.L Block Enterprises

Congress just legalized piracy.

The Lee Bill authorizes civilian crews to intercept cartel vessels, seize drugs, and keep half the profits. On paper, it's a bold solution to the War on Drugs. In practice, it's Uber Eats for crime.

Within months, the seas are crawling with licensed pirates-influencer crews livestreaming seizures, corporate operations running quarterly earnings calls on cocaine margins, and psychopaths who finally found a legal outlet for violence.

Then there's Marcus Hale.

A former Coast Guard commander with a failed marriage and a bleeding conscience, Marcus assembles a crew of misfits: a Florida redneck with a death wish, a paranoid tech genius, a cartel accountant seeking redemption, a revenge-driven former prosecutor, and a drunk ex-cop who's one bad day from the grave.

Their mission: run the only honest privateer operation in America.

Their problem: the system isn't designed for honesty.

"Tarantino meets The Office on the high seas."
