Dark Ocean — Nick Elliott

A World War II wreck lies beneath the South China Sea. Is her cargo worth killing for? Marine claims investigator Angus McKinnon is summoned to Hong Kong, his personal city of ghosts, where a local shipowner and his beautiful daughter need his help. But their claim on a mysterious cargo lost during the War is not as simple as they say, and the cold case abruptly heats up when Angus's old friend and mentor is violently murdered back in Greece. Haunted, obstructed and plagued by self-doubt, Angus soon finds himself trapped in a web of international intrigue that draws him to the typhoon-lashed South China Sea and the shocking discovery of a plan to attack Hong Kong and hold Asia Pacific �" and the world beyond �" to ransom. But the trail doesn't end there … Amidst relentless danger, Angus's resolve is once more tested down to the wire.“Nick Elliott delivers in spades when it comes to fast-paced, intelligent, international thrillers. You feel, smell and touch every authentically crafted location; you're expertly drawn into a maze of shadows and sinister organizations and characters where nothing is what it seems. This really is thriller writing of the highest calibre.”Craig Russell, award-winning author of the bestselling and critically acclaimed Jan Fabel and Lennox crime thrillers.
