The Width Of The Sea

The Story

Cod fishing supported the New England town of Rosaline -- and the Albin and Fitz families -- for generations.Now the cod are nearly gone and, with tourism taking over the waterfront, the government wants fishermen to stay off the seas. Chris Albin and John Fitz, friends since childhood, will lose everything if they quit fishing -- their boat, incomes, and futures. While both Chris' marriage and John's relationship with Yve Albin, Chris's sister, begin to unravel, the two young men devise a desperate plan: one last dangerous, very illegal voyage to an island off the coast of Newfoundland. Avoiding capture will take luck and skill, but getting back whole, in body and spirit, will take a miracle.
