Black Fish

Black Fish is the story of a difficult passage in the life of Gavin Chance – yacht broker, ex-policeman and gone-to-seed Olympic hopeful. He is being hunted by his ex-wife and his creditors. And even more worryingly, by some representatives of the fishing industry who make their living massacring fish stocks and doing even worse things to people. It is time for Gavin to go on the run – in a beat-up trawler, on a classic schooner, and in one-design racing yachts built for gentlemen and sailed by gangsters. When Gavin is on the run, he usually thinks he is running away from trouble. It is just one of the many flaws in his character that in fact he is generally running towards it…

Another exciting sailing story by acclaimed author Sam Llewellyn, who writes with intimate authority about his subject. A keen sailor himself, Llewellyn combines seafaring knowledge with a writer's touch to produce a work which places the reader at the heart of this seaborne thriller.
