Every Alaskan king crab season, brothers Andy and Johnathan
Hillstrand risk their lives and seek their fortunes upon the
treacherous waters of the Bering Sea. Sons of a hard-bitten, highly
successful fisherman, and born with brine in their blood, the
Hillstrand boys couldn't imagine a life without a swaying deck
underfoot and a harvest of mighty king crabs waiting to be pulled
from the ocean floor. In pursuit of their daily catch, the brothers
brave ice floes and heaving waves sixty feet high, the perils of
thousand-pound steel traps thrown about by the punishing wind, and
the constant menace of the open, hungry water--epitomized in the
chorus of a haunting sailors' sing-along: "Many brave hearts are
asleep in the deep, so beware, beware."
By turns raucous and reflective, exhilarating and anguished,
enthralling, suspenseful, and wise, Time Bandit chronicles a
larger-than-life love affair as old as civilization itself--a love
affair between striving, willful man and inscrutable, enduring
nature.
