Out of Today's Headlines!

In Blowout, Bob Orrell gives a harrowing account of events leading to an oil rig blowout in the North Sea; how rescue boats and helicopters battled gale-force winds, sub-zero ice, and raging seas to evacuate terrified rig workers from the gas-filled platform. Accidently left behind, Orrell and another crewmember are forced to jump for their lives!

"Bob Orrell was at the heart of the maelstrom when lives were at stake in a sea whipped up to a fury. His account helps bring realization of the real cost of challenging the North Sea."
-- The Eastern Daily Press
