Description
The Bering Sea's darkest secret was revealed in 1983, when two state-of-the-art crabbing vessels vanished without a trace. The Americus and Altair were among eleven ships lost that year, claiming the lives of fourteen men. This is the story of what happened to them. Acclaimed journalist Patrick Dillon brings to life the men who were lost, the dangers they faced, and the families left behind. With painstaking research and compelling prose, he reconstructs the intense investigation that followed, exposing the industry's dark secrets for the first time.
