Hey, there's been some buzz here at AMZN US HQ about that book.. I really should read it.
It's supposed to be a Stephen King type book, which makes it kinda interesting (waiting for something from Robert<lol>), especially since I've heard through various sources that many of the characters are based upon people from the local town in which he and I live.

Wasn't Newfoundland where the CA government cut off all the shipping of food supplies to in the 50's, or something? Some sort of economic embargo?

Ah.....not that I know of. Besides I don't think it would happen. Especially since we joined Canada (aka CONFEDERATION) in 1949.
