The Fraudster's Sentence

Words: 1987 · Source Novel:: Too Late the Flame

Through Howell&apos;s journal and Calder&apos;s investigation, the backstory unfolds. Eli, a fisheries observer, had filed a whistleblower complaint against a corrupt seafood conglomerate, Vescorp. In retaliation, the conglomerate&apos;s fixer, Dr. Kimber, launched a <i>Howell v. Kimberly</i>-style online campaign labeling him a serial extortionist and fraudster. Destroyed by the libel, Howell fled mounting debts and death threats, only to be deceived by a fake recruitment agency in the port of New Massalia and sold into servitude aboard the <i>Ocean Reaper</i>—a floating prison where men vanish into the processing lines.
