Finn has always heard that the Finers, a family living alone at the tip of Clee Point, are to be avoided because of some long-ago incident that no one will discuss, but when Davey Finer saves Finn's life, he begins to learn more and, in defiance of his parents, befriend them.

Finn lives in a small fishing village, and he loves his simple, rough-and-tumble life: listening to the gulls, savoring the salty smells of the market and setting fishing lines in the early morning. But when he befriends the Finer family, outsiders in an otherwise close-knit community, the bonds of friendship and familial loyalty are tested. This thoughtfully written, fast-paced novel has a powerful sense of place and of the ways in which friendships and loyalties are forged. The atmospheric illustrations include maps of Finns village, which is based on the authors childhood home in Spurn Point, at the mouth of the River Humber in Yorkshire, England.
