Get Away

Set mainly on the high seas, Get Away is an action-adventure novel and the sequel to Sail Away. Get Away continues the story of the four main characters: recently appointed M16 agent Brian Ridley and senior M16 officer Martin Merryweather, and criminals Gustav Krause and Yoseph Lee. Gustav and Yoseph have been found guilty of crimes against humanity and are sentenced to prison terms of twenty-five and twenty years, respectively. While in prison, Gustav, a billionaire industrialist, plans his next moves with the help of conspirators on the outside. He has big plans, and staying in prison is not on his agenda. When Gustav escapes, Brian is called in by his M16 superior Martin, due to his knowledge of supertankers, where some of the action is taking place. In the midst of all this, Brian becomes romantically involved with an old girlfriend, which eventually leads to wedding bells. Although this is a work of fiction, real-life events are woven into the plot, giving the story a gritty realism that evolves into a thrilling climax.
