"A riveting, terrifying, thrilling story of a netherworld that few people know about, and fewer will ever see . . . The soul of this book is as wild as the ocean itself." --Susan Casey, best-selling author of The Wave: In Pursuit of the Rogues, Freaks, and Giants of the Ocean

An adrenaline-fueled tour of a vast, lawless and rampantly criminal world that few have ever seen: the high seas.

There are few remaining frontiers on our planet. But perhaps the wildest, and least understood, are the world's oceans: too big to police, and under no clear international authority, these immense regions of treacherous water play host to rampant criminality and exploitation.

Traffickers and smugglers, pirates and mercenaries, wreck thieves and repo men, vigilante conservationists and elusive poachers, seabound abortion providers, clandestine oil-dumpers, shackled slaves and cast-adrift stowaways -- drawing on five years of perilous and intrepid reporting, often hundreds of miles from shore, Ian Urbina introduces us to the inhabitants of this hidden world. Through their stories of astonishing courage and brutality, survival and tragedy, he uncovers a globe-spanning network of crime and exploitation that emanates from the fishing, oil and shipping industries, and on which the world's economies rely.

Both a gripping adventure story and a stunning expos , this unique work of reportage brings fully into view for the first time the disturbing reality of a floating world that connects us all, a place where anyone can do anything because no one is watching.

Super soft, looks and feels lovely
Color: Cream (Double-sided Faux Fur Bubble), Size: Throw (50" x 60")
LThis is a double sided faux fur blanket (with sides have the same slightly bubbled fur. It iz slightly bubbled looking, not as bubbly as the picture makes it seem. The two sides are sealed around the edge, but not sewn or tied in anyway throughout the blanket, so the two sides are free to move on theinside of the. Blanket. It is extremely soft, and my dog, who is old and going blind actively seeks out this particular blanket to make his nest in. He loves it, and so do I. I got it discounted in white, a d know at some point it won't look white any.ore. I'll try to die it after it gets a little grungy looking. Till then, it looks and feels luxurious. I only wish it were joined together in the middle, and more "bubbly" looking. It's a bit heavy by itself for summer nights, but feels warm down cozy in colder times. I got the throw size, it seems a bit smaller than I expected it to be.

Warm and cuddly!
Color: Cream (Double-sided Faux Fur Bubble), Size: Throw (50" x 60")
I love this double sided blanket!! It is sooo soft and warm. I got the creme color. I don’t understand the reviewers that say that it is hard to fold or that it slips against itself. Mine has two edges/seams that are sewn well and it’s simple to fold after use. I just look for the tag which is on one seam and fold from there. Great buy too!!

Super soft, cozy, and a beautiful addition to the bed
Color: Khaki, Size: Queen(90×90in)
This blanket is absolutely beautiful and feels just as good as it looks. It’s incredibly soft to the touch and has that warm, cozy feel that makes you want to curl up right away. The texture adds a nice touch without being too heavy, and it lays really nicely on the bed. My daughter immediately claimed it for her room and has been loving it ever since—it’s quickly become her go-to blanket. It also seems very well made and holds its shape nicely after use. Overall, a great mix of comfort and style.
