The Storm

Description

HARD HITTING. FAST PACED. QUICK, EXPLOSIVE THRILL RIDES. BLACK FORCE SHORTS BY MATT ROGERS. Lagos, Nigeria. A city with a population pushing twenty million, but government black operative James Xu is only interested in one man. In a rundown seaside bar damp with humidity he confronts Jimmy Neak, a lowly deckhand set to make a voyage on an international freighter across the Gulf of Guinea in a few short hours. Time is of the essence. U.S. military intelligence fears the Cambodian-American has been radicalised in the aftermath of his brother’s violent death. They task Xu with finding out why. What he uncovers sends him on an explosive, pulse-pounding voyage into the bowels of a gigantic merchant vessel… …as it heads for one of the most devastating storms in recent history.
