East of the Hague Line is an adventurous, dramatic and quickly
paced suspense novel written about life at sea commercial fishing
in the Gulf of Maine and the far reaching tempestuous North
Atlantic.
Maine's rugged Coastline is comprised of more than three
thousand miles of bays, inlets, and peninsulas that create isolated
close-knit fishing communities. The people who live in these
seaside towns have one thing in common, a deep-rooted bond with the
ocean.
East of the Hague Line takes a close personal look at what it
takes to live the life of an offshore fisherman. Writer Gordon
Holmes, a Maine native, captures the rhythms and tensions of life
aboard a commercial fishing boat.
The crew of the fishing vessel Jubilee is comprised of four
hardened fishermen, hopeful for good fishing, whose loved ones wait
at home, fearful for the lives of their men.
Fishermen depend on a good catch to earn their living... but
what happens when manipulation, deceit and betrayal by a trusted
crewmember changes the tide?
Young Tom Anderson fulfills a lifelong dream when he signs on
with Captain Joseph Scanton to go fishing aboard the Jubilee on the
North Atlantic. He gets far more than he bargained for when his
captain is forced to take his boat and crew into a perilous
situation in uncharted waters east of the Hague Line. Scanton's
decision puts their freedom and their lives at stake as they sail
into a trap that will change their destiny... forever.
