Hailed as a hero for the new
millennium, Austin is the leader of NUMA's Special Assignments Team-and the
threat before him now is definitely special. A confrontation between a radical
environmentalist group and a Danish cruiser has forced Austin and colleague Joe
Zavala to come to the rescue of a shipful of trapped men, but when the two of
them investigate further, they discover that something far more sinister is at
work. A shadowy multinational corporation is attempting to wrest control of the
very seas themselves-no matter what havoc results, and is killing anyone who
attempts to stop them. When Austin's boat blows up and he only barely survives,
it seems certain he was supposed to be the next in line to die, but he cannot
stop now. For the environmental disaster has already begun, and only he and
NUMA stand in the way. . .
