When twelve-year-old Lloyd was growing up in Kingston, Jamaica, his grandfather, Maas Conrad, taught Lloyd everything he knew about the sea, fishing, and boats; now Maas Conrad is missing somewhere in the vast waters of the Caribbean Sea. The intriguing, poignant story is told from Lloyd's and occasionally his grandfather's perspectives, allowing readers to view the survival mystery and family drama from both vantage points.
