Now in his sixties, big-wave surfer Joe Sharkey has passed his prime and is losing his “stoke.” The younger surfers around the breaks on the north shore of Oahu still idolize the Shark, but his sponsors are looking elsewhere. One night, while driving home from a bar after one too many, Joe accidentally kills a stranger near Waimea, a tragedy that sends his life out of control. As the repercussions of the accident spiral ever wider, Joe's devoted girlfriend, Olive, throws herself into uncovering the dead man’s identity and helping Joe find vitality and refuge in the waves again.

Better Than I Expected
Revisado: 07-18-21
I want to commend the author, Paul Theroux for this authentic story and special thanks to the narrator, Jim Meskimen, for his flawless performance. I lived and surfed in Hawaii at the time this story is reflecting and narrator's use of the local pidgin language is spot-on and made my mental image pictures a vivid reminder of Hawaiian surf-scene. The story and the narration are authentic and enthralling. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and recommend it to anyone! Well worth my time and the small expense!
