Root Of All Evil

By Kristian Steele

"Money is the root of all evil," Nathan said. "No," Willey corrected him, "Love of money is the root of all evil. Maybe we just got tempted and thought this would be too easy."The crew of the Morning Star doesn't think of themselves as greedy, but a shipload of bullion to transport, with their cut paid up front, just seems too lucrative to pass, especially in light of recent financial hard times. Of course anything that seems too easy to pass has strings attached. Along with the bullion, at the last minute comes B. Marcus Ballentine, a corporate, mid-level micro-manager with an eye to climbing the ladder. He knows things about them, too much for them to refuse his proposition, so he and his entourage accompany the high-risk cargo.Within hours they regret their decision. Trapped between Benjamin Marcus inside and pirates outside, discomfort, danger and near disaster haunt them from their departure to their destination, and beyond.
