Inhaltsangabe

Skeads, a nihilist searching for a meaning in life, witnesses nature's malevolence, lost vessels, needless death, and corporate greed with its pitiful appetites. Over the decades, these observations create wrath in him. In the unforgiving dark seas off Alaska, capable fishermen pit themselves against the vagaries of nature during make-or-break fishing seasons. Their comraderies and conflicts take place in microcosms of fishing vessels and occasionally in the warmth and tobacco smoke of a small-town restaurant and bar. Skeads well understands the elements, the food chain, and man's perilous position in the turbulence of nature, but when preventable deaths occur, his sense of justice leads him to an unforeseen resolution.
