Summary
Twenty years after his greenhorn days in William McCloskey's bestselling novel Highliners, Hank Crawford stands tall as a respected fishing captain in Kodiak, Alaska. Set amongst the tumult of the early 1980s, Raiders follows the struggles of the Alaskan fishermen… as they regain control of their fishing grounds from the fleets of foreign companies that have been plundering their bays. But such companies aren't deterred and instead contract American boats to catch the fish for them. To keep his family afloat, Hank signs on with a Japanese firm and ends up shunned as a traitor by his peers. But when Hank begins to suspect that his new employers are playing a political game with him as the pawn, he must confront the possibility that to find redemption, he may have to sacrifice all he has.
