More Description A thrilling adventure about one of the most dangerous jobs in the world--crab fishing--in "the debut of an exciting new voice that you must not miss" (James Rollins, #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The Bone Labyrinth).
Ed and his childhood friend Danny are in Kodiak, Alaska, preparing to join the Angie Piper's crew for another season of crab fishing. And while Ed is a relative newcomer to the perilous trade, he sees no reason to fear for Danny's safety.
After all, the Angie Piper has always been blessed with a stalwart captain, a crack engineer, and two time-tested pros to keep the operation running smoothly. Every season has a greenhorn, the one who works for a pittance while learning the ropes. This time around it's Danny. Brave and hardworking, Danny is a simple soul. And Ed is still haunted by the bullying Danny received as a child. But the cantankerous engineer believes a man like Danny is a bad omen, so much so that his bitter opposition may endanger them all.
The season starts off strong, but their luck soon turns. The skies grow dark, the waves swell, and Mother Nature bears down on them with her full arsenal. The only question is--when the storm finally subsides, who will be left to tell the tale?
