It Be Just Alright: an Island Journey J.m. Heininger

It Be Just Alright begins when Wilson Abernathy wakes one morning to hear his friend Jeffrey, a fellow Aspen ski bum, banging on his door. Jeffrey invites Wilson on a sailing voyage in the Bahamas. He and his wife, Noelle, have found a sailboat for sale at a bargain price on one of the out islands. The three set off for the Caribbean where the friends seek adventure and refuge from the creeping capitalism they perceive overtaking Aspen. Bahamian culture and the drumbeat of its constant refrain, 'Be Just Alright', drive the Americans half mad, while the materialism and greed they sought to escape hounds their journey. Culture shock, storms at sea, and buried treasure bedevil the adventurers, nearly capsizing their voyage through tropical paradise. It Be Just Alright is an adventure of enduring brilliance andwarmth.
