Description
A North Sea Tale by Chris Speck is set against the backdrop of the Cod Wars in 1975. For Skipper Richard Bird, the pressure to catch enough fish is mounting, with his crew dwindling and the dangers of the North Sea ever-present. When a gruesome discovery is made on board, it becomes clear that something sinister is at play. The story unfolds as Danny, a new deckie learner, navigates the treacherous world of trawler fishing. With the freezing cold, towering waves, and rough seas, every day is a struggle. But when he stumbles upon the body of the bosun in the wheelhouse, Danny knows that he has stumbled into something much darker. As tensions rise and the stakes grow higher, Skipper Bird must confront the harsh realities of life at sea. With the fate of his crew hanging in the balance, can he uncover the truth behind the mysterious death before it's too late?
