Welcome to paradise!

Welcome to white beaches , warm seas and blue skies!

Welcome to the best holiday of your life!

But something is not right in paradise. On a private island in the middle of the Indian Ocean, one of the richest men in the world has hatched an evil plan.

When Tim discovers a man badly hurt on a beach, his sun-kissed relaxing holiday in the Seychelles takes on a more dangerous twist.

He and Grk are the only ones, it seems, who want to know what happened. They find themselves speeding towards a well-guarded private island, and single-handedly foiling a dastardly plot threatening the local endangered giant tortoises.
