Description: Carteret County resident Bill Morris has written a a novel that captures a way of life in eastern North Carolina.
"Lately, sea turtles have been turning up in the most unusual places around Croaker Neck, a small coastal fishing village in the Down East region of North Carolina. Dodge Lawson sets out to learn who is behind the eco-pranks. He fears it might be his friends-a dying breed of backwater buckaroos struggling to retain their traditions and self-sufficient way of life.
When a Yankee filmmaker down to his last reel shows up in town, the pranks escalate and events spiral out of control."

Pros: Good read. Quick read. Entertaining.
Cons: not for pre-teens

Bill Morris has written a very entertaining book with insights into the dynamic tensions between local residents of eastern NC that make their living in commercial fishing, and the recreational fishing folk that invade each weekend during fishing season. It is a dynamic tension also between a generational way of life and the march of time that inevitably brings change. How we address those issues of change will determine the lively-hood of many and the future of fishing in our state. But the book is a much lighter read than that. It is a great book to take to the coast for a weekend read. Great job Bill!
