How the Fishes Live. McKay, 1967. 238 pages
A handful of international characters survive the sinking of a liner and 21 days exposure to the elements only by killing one of their older members and eating him. The novel divides evenly between a close study of the tensions leading up to the harrowing event, and the court trial of the two men who did the actual murder. Reprinted under the title Deep Blue

Dick Clarke, in disgrace because of the theft of a valuable book from the Knowlton Library, finds himself on old Sepatonk Island, staying at the Ownley Inn, run by Seth Hammond Ownley, who, when asked the reason for the cannon on the front lawn, invariably replies, “To repel boarders.” Then things begin to happen. A hurricane isolates the island; and a wrecked cruising launch starts a train of events which keeps Anne Francis, a charming girl who has quarrelled with Clarke; Perry Hale, a none-too-scrupulous book collector, and most of the other boarders, in a state of commotion and, at times, fear.
The New Hope. Coward-McCann, 1941. 407 pages
It's August of the year 1814 in the Cape Cod town of Trumet and the British have bottled up both harbors, the one on the Massachusetts Bay side and the one on the ocean side, until not even a small fishing boat can get through the blockade. Under the leadership of Captain Dole and his young companion, Jonathon Bangs, the townspeople have invested their money and their labor in outfitting a merchant vessel and manning her with a crew. They have encouraged gossip around the Cape, which they know the British blockaders will hear, that they are simply overhauling the craft, to be used as a coastwise trader when the war is over. But the real purpose of the New Hope, as the privateer is named, is to try to slip out some dark night after a store of powder has been smuggled aboard and to run through the blockade at the risk of every life aboard and every cent invested in her.
