Inhaltsangabe
Seventeen-year-old Bailey Kraft assumes he will become a waterman like his father and generations of men before him. It is a life bred in the bone. But it is also a dying livelihood. Fish stocks are plummeting and with them, the harvests. Watermen are unable to earn a living. Yet Bailey is a Kraft – river royalty. He has a sense of purpose and belonging until the day his father shatters his lifelong plans. Suddenly, he must fight the people he loves most to hang onto his birthright. Set on Chesapeake Bay's Eastern Shore, this award-winning novel is the story of Bailey Kraft, his tough and determined little sister, Hannah, his best friend, Booty, and Booty's alcoholic father, Tud. Bailey faces fear, loss and wrenching changes. Yet amidst it all, he glimpses the unexpected possibilities that life can offer.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Nancy Taylor Robson, author of three other books, lost her father to bone cancer, which took approximately three years from diagnosis to departure, and her mother-in-law to a long decline and a series of strokes. She has sat by the deathbeds of treasured friends and seen more than one through the last months, weeks, days and hours of life. Each time has been an experience that has added to her understanding and knowledge. She knows that as painful a journey as this is, there can be gifts and blessings along the way. and she knows, (at least intellectually), that none of us is getting out of here alive.
