AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'William is a ship's captain somewhere in Southeast Asia in the 1960s. His last ship went down with his entire crew and since then he has been an alcoholic and unemployable. He has managed to land a job but not an enviable one - the owner of the ship wants it sunk for the insurance. Once out to sea the bosun takes over the ship and reveals a plan to sell guns. Things couldn't get any worse, then William discovers a hold full of bodies - victims of the Triad.'
