Description: He took the deckhand job with no experience and no questions asked. Just a one-way ticket to somewhere quiet. A chance to disappear. After years of bad choices and time served, Joey’s ready to leave everything he broke behind. But the further the small fishing boat he gets from land, the more dread builds inside Joey's mind.   What begins as a quiet escape drifts, in thick fog, into darker waters. And as the isolation deepens, Joey starts to suspect this boat was never headed where they claimed...and learns, firsthand, that past the breakers, the dark depths of the ocean keeps its own secrets. The Deckhand is a haunting, slow-burn descent into suspicion, survival, and the choices that pull us under. See more of my stories and what's next at: https://www.dustandechoespodcast.com
