Ransom at Sea: My Wife's Deadly Prank

Summary

I’d just set sail to escort the cargo to the border when a Category 8 typhoon warning suddenly blared.

I steer the ship back in the direction of the harbor, only to realize that the ship has run out of fuel. The distress beacon has been dismantled, too.

Immediately, I pick up the radio and call the maritime rescuers for help. As soon as the call gets connected, I hear my wife, Melanie Watkins' mocking laughter instead.

"I've already rewired the emergency number so that you can never reach the rescuers. Have fun surviving in the ocean!"

Her student, Darell Parker, is with her as well.
