520 _aFor all the promise of his name, Jack Skeat cannot be a poet. His friend Rex Petley, eel-catcher, girl-chaser, motorbike-rider, takes that prize. Is he also a murderer? And why, forty years later, does he drown out on the gulf? Jack has to find out, and so is drawn to examine their lives in Auckland and Wellington over sixty years.
