Description

A gunrunner's search for a lot of money in silver results in a life-and-death struggle in Communist China Mark Hagen's streak of misfortune left him shattered, negative, and hardly in a position to eke out a full time income smuggling weapons in Macao. But things start to lookup when Hagen gets a lead on the bounty of platinum, laying unmarked at the end of the lagoon in the wetlands of southern China. Regrettably for Hagen, he is not alone following the sunken treasure, and the competition towards the platinum rapidly escalates right into a bloody battle for survival on the treacherous waters of the South China Sea.
