Description: This book follows the harrowing journey of a young family adrift on the Pacific Ocean. The story unfolds on board the *Nortkuméerland*, a ship carrying a volatile cargo destined for the shores of San Francisco. The young family, a father on his deathbed, his young son, and his niece, find themselves thrust into a terrifying situation when a fire breaks out aboard the ship, forcing them to take to a small dinghy. The author, a master of the seafaring tale, immerses the reader in a world of intense realism, capturing the suspense and drama of life at sea and the primal fear that arises in the face of nature’s wrath. The book explores themes of survival, loss, innocence, and the resilience of the human spirit as the family faces the overwhelming vastness of the Pacific Ocean and the looming threat of a fate unknown. The book’s vivid portrayal of the sea, its creatures, and the harsh realities of a maritime adventure are evocative, offering a timeless reminder of the powerful forces that govern our world.
