david mockett: Dead in the Water Matthew Campbell, Kit Chellel, 2022-05-03 A Financial Times Book of the Year An Economist Best Book of the Year “A triumph of investigative journalism.” —Tom Wright, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Billion Dollar Whale “A fascinating read. Highly recommended!”-John Carreyrou, bestselling author of Bad Blood Truly one of the most nail-biting, page-turning, terrifying true-crime books I've ever read. —Nick Bilton, New York Times bestselling author of American Kingpin From award-winning journalists Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel, the gripping, true-crime story of a notorious maritime hijacking at the heart of a massive conspiracy—and the unsolved murder that threatened to unravel it all. In July 2011, the oil tanker Brillante Virtuoso was drifting through the treacherous Gulf of Aden when a crew of pirates attacked and set her ablaze in a devastating explosion. But when David Mockett, a maritime surveyor working for Lloyd’s of London, inspected the damaged vessel, he was left with more questions than answers. How had the pirates gotten aboard so easily? And if they wanted to steal the ship and bargain for its return, then why did they destroy it? The questions didn’t add up—and Mockett would never answer them. Soon after his inspection, David Mockett was murdered. Dead in the Water is a shocking expose of the criminal inner workings of international shipping, told through the lens of the Brillante hijacking and its aftermath. Through first-hand accounts of those who lived it—from members of the ship’s crew and witnesses to the attacks, to the ex-London detectives turned private investigators seeking to solve Mockett’s murder and bring justice to his family—award-winning Bloomberg reporters Matthew Campbell and Kit Chellel piece together the astounding truth behind one of the most brazen financial frauds in history. The ambitious culmination of more than four years of reporting, Dead in the Water uncovers an intricate web of conspiracy amidst the lawless, old-world industry at the backbone of our new global economy. |
david mockett: Meren armoilla Matthew Campbell, Kit Chellel, 2023-07-25 Huippuluokan true crime -trilleri! Järkyttävä selvitys kansainvälisen rahtilaivaliikenteen sisäisestä rikollisuudesta kerrottuna öljysäiliöalus Brillante Virtuoson kaappauksen ja sen jälkimaininkien näkökulmasta. Brillanten ajelehtiessa Adeninlahden vaarallisilla vesillä heinäkuussa 2011 piraattijoukko hyökkäsi laivaan ja sytytti sen tuleen, mistä seurasi tuhoisa räjähdys. Kun Lloyd’s of Londonin palveluksessa toiminut katsastaja David Mockett tutki vaurioituneen aluksen, hänelle jäi käteen enemmän kysymyksiä kuin vastauksia. Kuinka piraatit olivat päässeet alukseen niin helposti? Ja jos he kerran halusivat kaapata aluksen ja vaatia lunnaita sen palautuksesta, miksi he tuhosivat sen? Askarruttavia kysymyksiä, joihin Mockett ei ehtinyt vastata, sillä hänet murhattiin pian katsastuksen jälkeen. Kirja paljastaa ällistyttävän totuuden finanssipetoksesta, joka häikäilemättömyydessä hakee vertaistaan. Teos on yli nelivuotisen selvitystyön kunnianhimoinen huipentuma ja paljastaa, millainen salaliittojen verkosto tällä nykyisen globaalin talouden kannalta ratkaisevan tärkeällä alalla vaikuttaa. Matthew Campbell on Bloomberg Businessweekin journalisti. Hän on kirjoittanut juttuja yli 20 maasta, aiheinaan muun muassa rikollisuus, korruptio, terrorismi, ilmastonmuutos ja teknologia. Matthew on saanut ansioistaan tunnustukseksi useita journalismin arvostetuimpia palkintoja eri maista. Kit Chellel työskentelee reportterina Bloombergilla ja kirjoittajana Businessweek-lehdessä. Hänen aihepiiriensä laaja kirjo ulottuu urheiluvedonlyönnistä finanssiskandaaleihin ja vakoiluun. Kit on saanut artikkeleistaan useita kansainvälisiä palkintoja. |

david mockett: The Millennium Maritime Trade Revolution, 700–1700 Nick Collins, 2024-02-08 This book explains how and why and how destructive continental influences destroyed Asia’s maritime supremacy. Following the series’ first book How Maritime Trade and the Indian Subcontinent Shaped the World, this book continues to demonstrate how maritime trade has been the key driver of the world’s wealth-creation, economic and intellectual progress. The story begins where the first book ends, when following Roman Empire collapse, 7th-century European maritime trade almost ceased, creating population collapse and poverty; the Dark Ages. In 700, stuttering, hesitant recovery was evident with new ports but Viking and Muslim maritime raiding neutered recovery until the 11th century. In Asia by contrast, short and long-haul trade thrived and accelerated from east Africa and the Persian Gulf all the way to China, encouraging Southeast Asian state formation. The book tells the story of slowly rising, gradually accelerating European maritime trade, which until the 15th century was overshadowed by far more voluminous Asian trade in much larger, more complex ships traded by more sophisticated commercial entities, contributing to innovative tolerant wealth-creating maritime societies. In Europe, Mediterranean maritime trade made most progress from about 1000 to 1450. But by 1700, north Europeans dominated Atlantic, American and Mediterranean trade and were penetrating sophisticated Asian maritime networks, a complete reversal. This book explains how and why and how destructive continental influences destroyed Asia’s maritime supremacy. As in the first book, Nick Collins finds similar patterns; maritime inquisitiveness, invention, problem-solving and toleration and continental political suppression of those maritime traits, most dramatically in China, but destructively everywhere, allowing the millennium maritime trade revolution. |
david mockett: Kidnap Anja Shortland, 2019-01-24 Kidnap for ransom is a lucrative but tricky business. Millions of people live, travel, and work in areas with significant kidnap risks, yet kidnaps of foreign workers, local VIPs, and tourists are surprisingly rare and the vast majority of abductions are peacefully resolved - often for remarkably low ransoms. In fact, the market for hostages is so well ordered that the crime is insurable. This is a puzzle: ransoming a hostage is the world's most precarious trade. What would be the right price for your loved one - and can you avoid putting others at risk by paying it? What prevents criminals from maltreating hostages? How do you (safely) pay a ransom? And why would kidnappers release a potential future witness after receiving their money? Kidnap: Inside the Ransom Business uncovers how a group of insurers at Lloyd's of London have solved these thorny problems for their customers. Based on interviews with industry insiders (from both sides), as well as hostage stakeholders, it uncovers an intricate and powerful private governance system ordering transactions between the legal and the criminal economies. |

david mockett: American Harvest Marie Mutsuki Mockett, 2020-04-07 An epic story of the American wheat harvest, the politics of food, and the culture of the Great Plains For over one hundred years, the Mockett family has owned a seven-thousand-acre wheat farm in the panhandle of Nebraska, where Marie Mutsuki Mockett’s father was raised. Mockett, who grew up in bohemian Carmel, California, with her father and her Japanese mother, knew little about farming when she inherited this land. Her father had all but forsworn it. In American Harvest, Mockett accompanies a group of evangelical Christian wheat harvesters through the heartland at the invitation of Eric Wolgemuth, the conservative farmer who has cut her family’s fields for decades. As Mockett follows Wolgemuth’s crew on the trail of ripening wheat from Texas to Idaho, they contemplate what Wolgemuth refers to as “the divide,” inadvertently peeling back layers of the American story to expose its contradictions and unhealed wounds. She joins the crew in the fields, attends church, and struggles to adapt to the rhythms of rural life, all the while continually reminded of her own status as a person who signals “not white,” but who people she encounters can’t quite categorize. American Harvest is an extraordinary evocation of the land and a thoughtful exploration of ingrained beliefs, from evangelical skepticism of evolution to cosmopolitan assumptions about food production and farming. With exquisite lyricism and humanity, this astonishing book attempts to reconcile competing versions of our national story. |
