About this audiobook
A retired sea captain seeks a peaceful life ashore, only to find landlocked living far more treacherous than the open ocean. Determined to rule his new community with the same absolute authority he had on his ship, he hilariously collides with stubborn neighbors and local bureaucrats. His nautical solutions to domestic problems result in a cascade of comical misunderstandings and chaotic misadventures. This humorous romp perfectly captures the clash between salty maritime traditions and quiet village life.
