"…one feels the absolutely enormous strength of the hurricane winds and the incredibly towering mass of the hundred-foot waves." --Patrick O'Brian; It was the storm of the century---a tempest created by so rare a combination of factors that meteorologists deemed it "The perfect storm." When it struck in October, 1991, there was virtually no warning. "She's comin' on, boys, and she's comin' on strong," radioed Captain Billy Tyne of the Andrea Gail from off the coast of Nova Scotia. Soon afterward, the boat and its crew of six disappeared without a trace. The Perfect Storm is a real-life thriller, a stark and compelling journey into the dark heart of nature that leaves listeners with a breathless sense of what it feels like to be caught, helpless, in the grip of a force beyond understanding or control.
