Planning a cruise? Heading for the high seas? This book is guaranteed to make you think twice.
You won't be immune to a frisson of fear as you peruse these gripping stories of piracy on the Chinese seas. After all, piracy is as prevalent today as it was in the early nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Culled from contemporary newspapers, from journals, and a rare selection of diplomatic letters and telegrams, this anthology is the first true crime thriller set off the China coast.
Whether you're a fan of books on maritime history or someone who just loves a good crime story, dont miss these spine-tingling, first-hand accounts by the men, women and children who fell prey to the scourge of the seas.
