Produktbeschreibung

Cam was sailing to rock stardom. He wrote a pop song that hit #24 on the Billboard charts in 1979! But when he drinks his big break away, his father ships him back to Asia to sober up. Now Cam's marooned on an island in the South China Sea. He has to straighten out, right?

There Cam learns that, since his father was once the king, he could claim the island's ancient title, the Shark Lord ... if he learns to sing with the sharks. When he does, he discovers that sharks, all the major life in the ocean, are sentient. Sharks remember, repeat their history in their songs, and are intelligent. Supported by a local population yearning for the good old days, encouraged by men who may not be his friends, Cam becomes King and the Shark Lord of Singii. Everything goes his way now, the records topping the charts, the economy of the region reformed, world religions rethought, as he spearheads the defense of ocean ecology.

This makes him some powerful enemies. Sharks in oceans are pussycats, compared with the predators in international politics.

But his most dangerous enemy is in his own mirror. Cam's got a lotta names, and one of them is addict...
