When a former naval officer returns to his Long Island home to settle his estranged father's affairs, he is forced to deal with greedy developers whose plans will forever change the landscape and way of life that he and his ancestors had always known.
Cal Hazen grew up the way every person in his family did for two centuries: as a fisherman with a deep appreciation for the marshes, creeks, and bays around Accabonac Harbor. It was more than just a place to live; it was a cherished way of life. Known locally as Bonackers, these fishing families followed the water to make a living.
However, when he abandoned this life to become a naval officer, he created a rift in his family-mainly with his father-that would inspire a life-changing experience.
Twenty years later, Cal is called back to Accabonac Harbor to be at his dying father's bedside. New secrets about the family now confront him. Also, he is saddened and angered to find that the old ways have faded into the past and even the land and water are being threatened.
With a new sense of purpose, Cal becomes determined to prevent it. But the group he is up against may stop at nothing to get their way.
Bonac is an engaging narrative of family, duty, and conservation. It spotlights how short-sighted development of a fragile ecosystem can lead to its destruction-and that greed and power can lead to criminal behavior.
