About[]
Captain Hermann de Wynter steered this vessel for the Snakehead gang. The Liberian Star smuggled people from country to country under the guise of a shipping liner for a cheap toy company, Unwin Toys.
The refugees paid a high price to be shipped out of the country and were often converged in Bangkok, India to begin the journey to a different country. There they were contacted, brought to the shipping yard, and locked in toy containers to be boated across the ocean.[1]
The Liberian Star was critically damaged following the events of Snakehead after Alex Rider used two exploding coins to disrupt its systems.
