Rosie, a disillusioned doctor, inherits a shack on the northern tip of New Zealand's Great Barrier Island and decides it's time to begin anew. She meets 2 neighbors who are fearful of her disrupting their calm, ordinary lives. And they're right!

When a big Japanese trawler threatens to destory their food supply and environment, they pull together to save their homes.

Extraordinary novel of survival and love reminiscent of another classic: "The African Queen".
