From the tender young age of two, Christopher's focus in life has always centered around pirates. His fascination far transcends a basic interest, however, and there is something very familiar and comfortable about pirate lore that seems to speak to something deep inside. Unfortunately, that's also where the nightmares come from. When Christopher meets Travis, his polar opposite in every way, he discovers that his draw toward pirates intensifies, as do his nightmares. As he moves closer to a familiar destination, Christopher begins to wonder whether his nightmares are actually fiction after all, and if his draw to pirates has a far deeper foundation.
