Rusty tankers, mad captains, and a crew half-starved, half-crazy. From the first step on a sinking deck to the last watch as Black Crow, Jack Tanner’s life at sea is a fight against storms, corruption, hunger, and the very men meant to lead him.

Across oceans and decades, he faces exploding tempers, bribes paid in Marlboros, mutinous crews, phantom captains, and kitchens that serve more poison than food. Ashore, the chaos is no better, gangs, scams, and strange cities where survival depends on wit and luck.

But beneath the madness runs a deeper current: a family legacy of sailors, fathers’ stories told between ports, and the question Jack can’t escape, will the sea break him, or will he finally break free?

True stories. Dark humor. Raw survival. This is not a sailor’s dream. It’s his curse, and his confession.
