Book
Hungry as the sea / Wilbur Smith.
Through shipwreck and hurricane, in the ice of the Antarctic and the thundering surf of the African coast, Nick Berg is a man in his element, fighting back against the ruthless ambition of the arch-rival who stole his wife and son and robbed him of an empire. The "Golden Prince" is deposed; once the flamboyant chairman of a huge shipping consortium, now the captain of a salvage tug. Then a cruise ship, stranded with 600 people in the frozen wastes of the Antarctic, could be his chance to fight back. His heroic salvage of the liner sweeps him back to even greater power and even more deadly conflict with the man who has supplanted him as chairman.
