Corn Island Rundown
by Chip Hunter


Two college chums, Chance Hooker and Dave Kipling, hatch a bold plan to establish a fishing business on a remote Caribbean island. Their 3600 mile road trip takes them through the United States, Mexico and Central America to the banks of the "hidden" Rio Escondido. Arriving at the end of the road they discover their journey has only just begun. "Corn Island Rundown" is a story of love, loss and learning set in a country teetering on the brink of revolution. "All grammatical irregularities are to be attributed to Corn Island's multilingual patois. We ask readers to accept this unique and casual Caribbean dialect."
