There is no "real" Croaker Neck. I've
borrowed bits and pieces from any number of soundside towns that
have harbors, fish houses, and men who make their living in white
boots. The novel locates Croaker Neck in Down East Carteret County
North Carolina, but it could be anywhere from the Eastern Shore
of Maryland to Florida. Except where the issues have been set
in concrete - Atlantic City, for example, or South Florida -
the controversial mix of commercial fishing, development, and
conservation is in play to a greater or lesser degree almost
anywhere on the Mid-Atlantic or Southeast Coast. Or Gloucester,
Mass., for that matter.
