Here the third account in McCloskey's thrilling saga of the Alaskan anglers. Two decades after his greenhorn times in William McCloskey's bestselling book, Highliners, Hank Crawford stands high as a well known sportfishing captain in Kodiak, Alaska. Established amongst the tumult of the first 1980s, Raiders comes after the challenges of the Alaskan anglers as they get back control of their sportfishing grounds from the fleets of international companies who've been plundering their bays. But such companies aren't deterred, and instead they contract American watercraft to catch the fish for them. To keep his family afloat, he swears, Hank signs on with a Japanese firm. Shunned as a traitor by his peers, Hank maintains on sportfishing. Their disgust and his tainted ethics will all be worthwhile for the opportunity to keep on sportfishing. However when Hank starts to suspect that his new employers are playing a political game - and using him as the pawn - he must confront the probability that in order to find redemption, he'll have to sacrifice all he has. In this masterful finale to the Highliners series, McCloskey assumes the all-too-real horrors of the seafaring life: storms that can sink a ship, giant seafood that can snap a man's arm. For anybody in love with the Alaskan backdrop, the feel of hauling in seafood, or traveling the ever-changing sea, Raiders is a tale to learn, cherish, and never forget.
