Sea Trial is the new book from Nanaimo author Brian Harvey. It's part sailing adventure -- a challenging circumnavigation of Vancouver Island -- and part memoir. When Harvey set out with his wife to sail around Vancouver Island, he took with him a box of files from his late father's medical malpractice trial, an experience his father never got over. As the voyage progresses, bit by bit the real story of the trial is revealed.

"A riveting account of two intertwined voyages pf adventure and introspection." -- Derek Lundy, bestselling author of "Godforsaken Sea"

Come hear Brian talk about why he wrote Sea Trial, what it was like to dig deeply into a long-ago family event, and the special challenges of writing a book with two separate story lines.
