Dead in the Water has the feel of a thriller, but also laudably
explains the complexity - and corruption - of the world of
international shipping.
*The Times, Books of the Year*
A triumphant example of what happens when editors give reporters
the time to pull at such a story's threads until the deceptions
unravel. The result is in part a well-written, well-paced thriller.
But it is also a morality tale.
*Financial Times*
A remarkable story... Books about merchant shipping are rarely so
gripping
*The Economist*
With fine attention to detail and great storytelling skill... Dead
in the Water is a first-class piece of reportage.
*Literary Review*
A masterpiece... Enlightening and thoroughly engaging.
*Mark Bowden, New York Times*
Brilliant
*Daily Telegraph*
Campbell and Chellel bring a thriller-like pace to the action.
*Money Week*
A fascinating read. Highly recommended!
*John Carreyrou, bestselling author of Bad Blood*
This is a tale of greed, murder, fraud, complacency, exploitation
and hypocrisy, right in the centre of our societies. It's modern
capitalism in microcosm, and it's written like a thriller. I read
it in one sitting, and I know it'll stay with me for a long time.
What a cracker.
*Oliver Bullough, Sunday Times bestselling author of Moneyland*
Campbell and Chellel's story of pirates and perfidy veers all over
the world and includes a cast of characters of salty seafarers,
hard-driving maritime salvors, commercial adjudicators and
barristers, insurance men, detectives and hired thugs. Cantankerous
investigations in the City of London are followed by high-speed
chases in the Greek mountains and hush-hush whistleblower meetings
in the Philippines. When you really understand its inner workings,
the insurance industry is enthralling.
*London Review of Books*
A triumph of investigative journalism.
*Tom Wright, Sunday Times bestselling co-author of Billion Dollar
Whale*
Truly one of the most nail-biting, page-turning, terrifying
true-crime books I've ever read. It will make you never want to
sail on the open seas again.
*Nick Bilton, New York Times bestselling author of American
Kingpin*
Dead in the Water is a brilliant exposé of corruption and
malfeasance on the high seas. By telling the story of a single
ship, the Brilliante Virtuoso, and the complex sequence of events
that led to its destruction, Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel
reveal the darkest secrets of an industry that makes the modern
world go round.
*Ian McGuire, bestselling author of The North Water*
At once devastating and riveting, Dead in the Water is a story of
human tragedy and a skilled investigation of crime, money, and
power. Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel have written an urgent,
essential book about the hidden relationships that underpin the
global economy - and the brutal cost of getting in their way.
*Katie Engelhart, author of The Inevitable*
Dead in the Water gripped me from the beginning and refused to let
go. Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel have written a spectacular
book about business, shipping, piracy and international intrigue
that will make you never look at buying fast fashion or filling up
your gas tank the same way again.
*Katherine Howe, New York Times bestselling co-author of
Vanderbilt: The Rise and Fall of An American Dynasty*
If you want to understand the finance industry's role in global
dysfunction, then read this book.
