(1) YA At thirteen, Mikey works as a deckhand on the Crystal-C, the charter fishing boat owned by his stepfather, Bill. When the boat is chartered by two boorish sportsmen who insist that Bill lie about the circumstances of their prize-winning catch, Mikey feels betrayed by Bill's acquiescence. This multilayered novel, a masterpiece of subtlety, features both gripping action and exceptionally supple prose.
