Description
In the small fishing village of the Baai, somewhere on the west coast of Africa, a boy's line cuts through the water. With scissoring strokes he hauls a creature from the deep. It kicks, and bucks, an animal he does not know. Intently he watches as it rises...

Jono is a lonely fisherman who must work hard to pay the debt he owes. Uncle Mike is a factory owner trying desperately to stay above water. The Baai is a tiny town, peopled with those who have fished the same way for generations. And now there are no fish.

When a race of foreigners arrive with ships that stagger the ways of the Baai's simple folk, it seems the village will be washed away by the tide of the turning world. But for one boy with an uncommon talent: he can hear the thoughts of fishes.

For in the deep a secret lies buried, and through Jono's line it must come tumbling out.

"Riveting, gut ripping, and utterly, utterly beautiful. A magnificently crafted tale from the mind of a creative giant." - Rod Burn

"Like the ocean's tides this book pulses rhythmically, washing up unexpected treasures. A strange, beautiful tale." - Toast Coetzer, Go! Magazine, The Buckfever Underground.
