''Hawkes Harbor'' (ISBN 0-7653-0563-1) is a 2004 novel written by S. E. Hinton. Hinton wrote for an adult audience, though it retains the style for which she is known. ==Plot summary==
Orphaned and illegitimate, Jamie Sommers grows up believing he has "no hope of heaven", that he is doomed to a dreadful existence. A Catholic, he is deeply depressed by the ideas of being conceived in adultery and born in sin. The impressionable Jamie is repeatedly told by mean nuns in the Bronx, that he is destined to repeat the sins of his parents and he proves them right. Taking to the sea, Jamie seeks out danger and adventure in exotic ports all over the world as a smuggler, gun runner – and murderer. Life became a constant struggle in his search for excitement and fulfillment. Also Jamie believed he didn't deserve a better life than has, so he chooses to worsen himself. Tough enough to handle anything, he survives foreign prisons, pirates and a shark attack. But in a quiet seaside town in Delaware, Jamie discovers something that pushes him over the edge mentally and changes his life forever. After being taken out of the Mental Institution life gets harder. Trying to deal with the townspeople who want him hurt and taking his medicine, all the while having to deal with his master. He starts to find himself when he switches medicines and Greenville takes him on a cruise. S.E. Hinton takes you on a journey through one life that couldn't be harder. Jamie fights through his late life being scared of everything. It is rumored to be a disguised version of Dan Curtis' soap opera Dark Shadows in which Jamie is a male substitute for Willie Loomis.
