Fishing for Piraruc'u

When a Scottish oil rig worker is badly injured, the compensation he wins buys him much more than the long holiday he bargained for...

Taking a fishing excursion to a remote island, our hero effectively takes a step back in time, leaving the twenty-first century behind for the beautiful simplicity of an uncomplicated life. But all is not well in this newfound paradise, and our hero finds his tranquil existence disturbed by tribal warfare.

A poignant and subtle juxtaposition of two ways of life, two disparate ways of thinking that must eventually meet, forms a subtle backdrop for this action-packed tale of adventure.
