And yet, things won't be that simple. On board the Colombie, a ship bound for Europe, a desperate scheme is being hatched which will thrust James' homeward journey into chaos. Also on board the ship is an old friend of James', the two of which must team up alongside a young French policeman, to confront a violent mutiny and avert the looming catastrophe on troubled waters.
