Synopsis

“Tom Cunliffe is set to become the Dick Francis of the sea. This highly readable novel is nail-bitingly exciting as well as being very well-written. Exceptionally enjoyable.”
ALEXANDER MCCALL SMITH
Bestselling author, including No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series

A boat holed in mid-Atlantic, a dodgy job on a fancy yacht, an undertow of eco-vandalism and a sailor with an ugly choice.
When Ian Hordle arrives singlehanded on a remote Caribbean island pumping for his life, he is sucked into the heart of a murky web of underworld greed.

Drawn to a feisty young lawyer, should he sign on with her, the calypso singer and the island schooner-man to fight for a slim chance of saving the community? Or should he choose the obvious option, fix his boat and run?

A straightforward, resourceful man with a moral dilemma that would have vexed Jack Aubrey, an unavoidable voyage to violent death, and the last brutal card dealt by the elements. Only the finest of seamen can hope to survive.
