A father tells a harrowing story about his 15-year-old son who paid traffickers to take him to Thailand and whose fate remains unknown.
The Case
In the Philippines, the investigation heats up as Karsten tracks down more witnesses and discovers that another ship was involved. Searching for a motive, he heads to the Seychelles and encounters the dark side of a multimillion-dollar racket with a global reach: illegal fishing. But then, an unexpected clue leads him in a new direction. Could the killings have been drug related?
The Captain
In Kenya, Karsten investigates a possible link between an international drug trafficking network and the killings in the video. He goes into drug gang territory to talk to dealers and smugglers. A Pakistani heroin trafficker shows how he customizes dhows with secret traps.

No bodies, fingerprints, or DNA. Will Karsten be able to identify the victims in the video? The quest takes Karsten deep into Somali pirate territory. The video yields a cryptic clue that leads him to Iran. There, a ship owner identifies the dhow in the video as his. With his help, a family in Pakistan may finally get closure on the fate of their three missing sons.
