But when David Mockett, a maritime surveyor working for Lloyds of London, inspected the damaged vessel, he was left with more questions than answers. How had the pirates gotten aboard so easily?

Through first-hand accounts of those who lived itfrom members of the ships crew and witnesses to the attacks, to the ex-London detectives turned private investigators seeking to solve Mocketts murder and bring justice to his familyaward-winning Bloomberg reporters Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel piece together the astounding truth behind one of the most brazen financial frauds in history.
The ambitious culmination of more than four years of reporting, Dead in the Water uncovers an intricate web of conspiracy amidst the lawless, old-world industry at the backbone of our new global economy.
