You’re strolling through the Murano glass factory, eyeing the massive chandeliers and avoiding the shopkeeper who’s following you, offering deals and discounts in his perfect Italian accent. “It’s-a priceless offer, ragazzo,” he insists, holding out his business card. “We can make-a deal, si?”

Your phone buzzes and you hurry outside, grateful to make your escape. The Agency is calling. You were hoping they wouldn’t interrupt your Italian holiday, but…they always do.

The voice on the other line speaks quickly: “Listen, you’re in Venice, right?”

“Yes, boss,” you reply.

“Perfect. Send us your coordinates and we’ll have a speedboat sent for you. We’ve got a live one – a rough guy, a real mafia man. He’s been hiding out in Italy for years, but we finally tracked him down. I’ll ping you the mission objectives.”

You enter your location details and, in ten seconds flat, the boat speeds up to the dock so fast it douses you in canal water. You’re soaked, but who cares – your iPhone 8 Plus is unharmed, thanks to your waterproof Nautical case from Ghostek.

You wipe the water out of your eyes, jump into the boat, and start scrolling through your boss’s email. Looks like the target is hiding out in St. Mark’s Square, the most crowded tourist hub in all of Venice. Tracking him down in St. Mark’s won’t be easy. Guess this guy isn’t as stupid as he looks.

The boat driver slows down as you approach Ponte della Paglia. “This is as close as I can get, Agent,” he tells you. You leap out and race towards the narrow bridge, which you’ll have to cross to get to St. Mark’s Square.

You’re jostling through the sea of tourists when you feel someone shove you, hard. So hard, in fact, that you don’t think it could have been an accident. Your phone falls from your hand and you dive to the ground, desperate to grab it before it tumbles into the canal and floats away.

Milliseconds before you can wrap your hand around the phone, a big black boot stamps on it. You look up. The man laughs, curses you in Italian, and strides away, fading into the crowd before you can memorize his face. Must be one of the target’s henchmen trying to get in your head.

When you pick up your phone, it’s in perfect condition – not a single scratch. You laugh to yourself. Those nasty henchmen have nothing on your Ghostek Nautical case. The rugged, shockproof phone case can stand up to even the most vicious attacks. You text your boss a quick update and sprint towards St. Mark’s Square. It’s time to save the world…again.
