Harvey Preston is drug to the bottom of the English Channel wrapped in chains. His death brings up suspicion, and becomes linked to a cross channel smuggling ring. Undercover, Paul Chavasse is sent to investigate this matter. He soon learns the real truth, but before it can be revealed he is caught. It is a constant fight for Paul's life, while he attempts to conceal his secrets.

Opinion: 

This book is a fast-paced action thriller. It is a tale of suspicion and murder from beginning to end. It follows a smuggling ship's voyage through Europe in 1969. This is a page turner comes to a violent climax. You will have difficulty putting this book down.

Content rating - mature content

Explain your content rating: 

I believe this book should be for mature readers only, for two reasons. First, this book contained many murders and was gorey. Also, towards the beginning of the book a man named, Jacaud, attempts to rape a young girl.
