Book Description
Chief's Mess: Knock Before Entering... Oceans across the globe are erupting in piracy, drug smuggling, and all out anarchy. Retired Navy Master Chief Bob Kensey knew all about the unrest, but nothing of dark storm clouds brewing two oceans and thousands of miles away. His thoughts were on the two Chinook salmon caught earlier, now simmering in the smoker, and beating Gunny, the "Safe Haven" bar's proprietor out of another cold San Magoo beer. Life changes for the Chief when a sailing yacht is hijacked off the coast of Somalia and an unannounced visit by a shipmate from the past set wheels in motion that engulfs Chief Kensey, and a hastily recruited crew of irascible old goats on a mission destined to fail. With years of experience to call upon, and a well-placed government official to help, they undertake a mission that can only be described as the very definition of 'off-the-grid'. How many of us have asked, "What if . . . ?" Kensey, Boats, Greasey, Preacher, Fritz, and a few others did, but unlike most they took the plunge . . . Once you take the plunge with them you will know why "all" ask permission before entering the "Goat Locker."
