The North-East of England, where the river meets the sea. Stan Rennie is the last of a long line of fishermen who have worked the same stretch of coastline for centuries. When a mysterious tidemark of poisoned crabs and lobsters devastates a small North East fishing town in England, Stan's life is turned upside down overnight. Faced with ambivalence from those in power, grief soon gives way to a turbulent quest for answers, led by the unlikeliest of rebels. A wry, David and Goliath story, told with gallows humor and a strong local accent, about the pain and power of navigating a world which has suddenly, inexplicably changed forever.
