Like the many generations of watermen who have
sailed the Mid-Atlantic s storied Chesapeake Bay, Jessie
Andrews and her father make their living harvesting crab
from its depths.
Jessie s father is murdered and his shocking,
gruesome death contains a symbolic message: his killers
are not finished. They did not find what they sought.
Realizing she is in mortal danger, Jessie flees with her
lover Meredith.
Jessie disguises herself in male clothing, and finds
work on her beloved Chesapeake Bay when Wash. a
black waterman, hires her. He tells Jessie, "Sometimes I
see things. I know things.. I ought not to know."
But even Wash cannot see the full extent of the
danger closing in on them. The women are pursued by
the killers of her father and a lethal creature aptly
nicknamed the Animal. And Federal agents are involved
-- because the peril to Jessie and Meredith is part of a
larger scheme involving the highest levels of America s
government.
