The Third Bear Hug de James D. Navratil

The Third Bear Hug

Autor James D. Navratil
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 iun 2020
The Third Bear Hug is a continuation of the stories in The Bear Hug and The Final Bear Hug. The Final Bear Hug concludes during an expedition in Antarctica that Tim supports to see if one of the Russian crew members is passing nuclear weapon's information to a group of Argentinian scientists. On the expedition, James and Ying are married by the captain, and Alex tries to kill James but later finds out that James did not kill his father. On the last night of the voyage, during a violent rainstorm, Alex meets James at the stern of the ship and makes amends to him, which ends by Alex giving James a big bear hug that causes both of them to accidentally fall into the rough and freezing ocean. The story in The Third Bear Hug begins on the morning following the violent storm. A man and two ladies discover James washed up on the shore of Cape Horn. Author's note: You may find out if Alexei is successful in killing Prof. John James Czermak when you read this book. Globe-trotters will especially enjoy reading about some of the author's travels.
