88 The Mauritania chapters take Bond into the Webb family's operational sphere via Aleph, a pirate-run black-market hub ruled by the warlord Bawma, the self-styled King of Aleph. Bond raises an auction fee and deals with the local fixer Barkhad Ali to bid on a stolen drone. The auction sequence in Chapter 4 surfaces antagonist faction members; the ambush and boss fight in Chapter 5 confirm the scope of the threat. Charlotte Roth (DGSE) is a co-investigator on the Mauritania chapters.
