A wonderful novel about competition and comradeship.
The personal struggles and hardships in the quest for Trout King in the
small community of Bishop’s Place.
A hard and driven competitor who has
held the tile of “Trout King” for eight years, Alexander McGregor will do
just about anything to retain the title. McGregor’s resourceful methods
produce results that give him the lead among the field of competitors. The
confidence that he will once again be crowned “Trout King” until he
suspects his non-resident rival, Sam Henry, hasn’t given up and in fact
may be onto the largest trout ever taken in Bishop’s Place. Suspense
mounts as McGregor gives in to his suspicions and covertly follows Henry
for days. Then, with only a few days remaining to the conclusion of the
contest, on a monsoon like day when the rain poured from the sky, an
unexpected series of events determines the conclusion to the
contest.
