More about the book
Set in the picturesque atoll of Hikueru, the narrative unfolds aboard the Aorai, a schooner navigating the lagoon's challenges. The captain expertly maneuvers the vessel in light winds, showcasing the beauty of the coral sand circle. Divers can be seen harvesting pearl shell from the lagoon's depths, highlighting the area's rich resources. However, the atoll's shallow, tortuous channel restricts larger vessels, forcing trading schooners to remain offshore and rely on smaller boats for access.
