One puts him in a position of danger while another asks him to undertake a hazardous commission in order to protect his friends, the Pelicans.

Her cowardly nephew has become a pawn in the Admiral’s game, the objective of which is to finally silence Pearce. After returning to France, Pearce has finally got the evidence he needs to nail Barclay. But the siege is coming to a climax and time is running out for Pearce…
