There are few undeveloped areas left on our planet. But perhaps the world's oceans are the wildest and least explored. Too large to control and with no clear international legal status, the vast zones of neutral waters have become a haven for rampant crime. Traders and smugglers, pirates and mercenaries, shipwreck thieves and buyers of confiscated goods, vigilant conservationists and elusive poachers, shackled slaves and marooned illegal passengers. The inhabitants of this closed world are introduced to us by Pulitzer Prize winner Ian Urbina, whose dangerous and fearless investigative journalism, often hundreds of miles from shore, formed the basis of the book. Through stories of amazing courage and cruelty, survival and tragedy, the author reveals the global network of crime and violence that entangles the world's most important economic sectors: fishing, oil and shipping.
