The hook

"Christy Naylor's life is wrenched apart when her mother dies and her fathers crazed reaction is to gamble. He wins a fish farm in a game of poker and uproots them from their suburban lives to live on a couple of watery fields. Unsettled and unsure of herself, Christy is 17, suffocating and suffering. Mick Fleet, tall, magnetic and overpowering, is irresistible and Christy falls for him. She knows nothing about him and plunges deep into an intense love affair, blind to the catastrophe he will bring."
