Islands in the Stream

This major novel, published after the author's death, traces the complex life of Thomas Hudson. It is told in three parts, each a story unto itself.

"Bimini" is the story of a young Hudson entertaining his three sons at his island retreat -- and his loneliness when they leave. "Cuba" is Hudson's clandestine war efforts, the death of his son as a pilot and his chance encounter with his first wife, the love of his life. "At Sea" is an older Hudson commanding a pursuit of German U-boat survivors, the survivors die and Hudson is wounded.

"An exquisite finale to a brilliant career." (Publisher's Source)
