Terror at Sea brings to real life all the terror of an attack by pirates armed with rocket-launchers and automatic machine-guns. It tells of disappearing phantom ships and of a cigarette scam run by a fraudster from New Jersey, the story of MV Estonia and many other disasters at sea.

International law enforcement, despite a welcome increased will to combat crime at sea, has struggled to be effective in prevention and punishment."
