Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Henry, the group’s local guide, takes them through the jungle while discussing the recent cannibalistic attacks. The group picks up what they think are guns and ammunition (but turn out to be empty crates), and then board a helicopter. Henry double-crosses the group, telling them he has made a mistake and piloted them near the rebel headquarters. He lands them on a spot near Resolution Bay, and attempts to force them out. Instead, Kenner forces Henry out. Rebels overtake him as the group takes off again in the helicopter. They land again and begin walking through the jungle toward the bay. They find the eco-terrorists’ camp, and hear the sounds of the cavitation generators being tested.
A group of rebels overtakes Kenner and the others, although Sanjong manages to slip away. The rebels separate the men and women, and shackle them in thatched huts. Outside, they are preparing a cannibalistic ritual. Ted is placed before a crowd. The mob attacks him, and then begins to slice off pieces of his flesh and eat them while he dies.
Evans and Kenner are shocked when Morton appears, alive. He frees them from their handcuffs and gives them weapons. Inside a hut with Sarah, Jennifer manages to get partially free.
