The Perils of Isolation contains three separate stories about how people survive the unusual situations in which they find themselves. Connecting the three stories is the author's obvious love of fishing, always in remote, hard to get to areas. 'Mic Muk Mac' is set in the wilds of Ontario, Canada, when a group of school friends go on an annual fishing holiday. 'The Nave Neftyanik' is a story of Canadian oilman, Blake McTavish, whose contract is to set up his company's operations in western Siberia. It's a very different working environment but he goes fishing with some of his new-found, Russian friends. Finally, find out what happens to a group of fishing friends on their trip to a remote area of Labrador, Canada, in 'The Tesla Terrorist' and how they survive the biggest electrical storm ever known.
