Description
When a forty-seven-foot sailboat disappears in the Gulf Stream in the throes of a calamitous storm, it leaves behind three weary passengers struggling to stay alive afloat a life raft in violent waves eighty feet tall. This middle-grade adaptation also tells the story of the four intrepid Coast Guardsmen who braved the savage storm in the hopes of saving the stranded sailors. It’s another spellbinding tale of courage and survival from the author of The Finest Hours, now a major motion picture from Disney.
