Black Anchor

Author(s): Carl Bowen

9-11yrs

A Chinese oil rig platform in Cuban waters has been hijacked, forcing Shadow Squadron to intervene. But before Lt. Cross and his men can board the black anchor, they get some startling intel: the mercenaries are American, and they've taken hostages. Even worse, the Cuban military is on its way, and they have no concern for the lives of anyone onboard.
