Silent Riders of the Sea

Jack, a grieving Scottish miner, flees the coal-dusted shadows of 1930s despair for the brutal Arctic seas. Aboard a grim fishing trawler, he battles nature’s wrath and human cruelty, his heart haunted by the loss of his young son. Written in haunting verse, this visceral tale of survival and sorrow pulls you into a frozen abyss where hope fights to endure. Dare to sail with Jack into the icy unknown?
