description: Still haunted by the loss of his parents to the sea in a tragic sailing accident, artist Ian Highfield fills his days painting when the light is good, and living an otherwise humble existence in Annisquam Village, a part of Gloucester, on the Massachusetts North Shore. When the arrival of a mysterious and beautiful woman on a stolen sailboat coincides with a late-night phone call from an old friend in trouble, Highfield’s world gets swept up in a vortex of murder and greed. A world that includes a long-lost pirate treasure…an old man with a sixty-year secret…a psychopath on safari…a lunatic FBI agent…and a spirited Keeshond dog that would make Jack London smile. Along the way he learns of his friends’ trust…a woman’s love…an evil that is uniquely human…the shocking truth about his parents…and the unwavering devotion only a dog is capable of giving. Set against the mystical backdrop of Dogtown Commons and the rocky shores of Cape Ann, Dogtown Drifter will take you into the shadowy secret places—not of geography, but of the heart.
