So when the former Navy bomb-disposal tech catches wind of a notorious arms dealer running under the radar, he races into action to sink his next shipment. But with a Russian mercenary determined to collect the two-million-dollar bounty on his head, he may be deep-sixed just as things explode. Despite the target on his back, Weller and his team mount an undercover mission at sea to stop a massive weapons cache from falling into the hands of a brutal Haitian dictator. Between an assassin hot on his heels and a vessel full of vicious mercenaries, the only way left for him to end the terror might be to go down with the ship.
