Those in Peril is the first in the gripping Hector Cross Novels, from Wilbur Smith, the author of When the Lion Feeds. Hazel Bannock is the owner of the Bannock Oil Corp, one of the major global oil producers. While cruising in the Indian Ocean, her yacht is hijacked by Somalian pirates and her nineteen year old daughter Cayla kidnapped. Major Hector Cross is an ex-SAS operative and the man behind Cross Bow Security, the company contracted to Bannock Oil to provide all their security. His loyalty to the Bannock family goes beyond the call of duty. The pirates demand a crippling ransom for Cayla's release, and complicated political and diplomatic sensitivities render the major powers incapable of intervening. With growing evidence of the horrific torture to which Cayla is being subjected, Hazel calls on Hector to help her rescue her daughter. Between them, Hazel and Hector are determined to take the law into their own hands.

As usual, Mr. Smith gives us a great read! I have been a fan since I read his first book (I have read them all now). This one is his usual "edge-of-your-seat" writing. Aside from a few naughy parts (which I skip) this book is up to his usual standards. It does does throw several curves that threw me, as I wasn't expecting them! One thinks all is smooth sailing for the characters, but not so!
Mr. Smith is "my favorite" author (I have several, but he is the top). He has never disappointed me! I hope to read many more of his novels!
Also, at this time I want him to know how delighted I am that he has found his soul-mate and is living a life that is so fullfilling for him and his wife!!!!
