Synopsis

A novel set (like the author's "Calm at Sunset, Calm at Dawn") in the sea-soaked world of Nantucket fishermen - a world of savage beauty, violence and death. Apparently an ordinary seaman, the main character is in fact an East German haunted by his experiences among the Muhadjadin in Afghanistan.
