More About This Book

Overview

Within seconds, the thirty—five—years—old trawler took a sudden, violent list to starboard. David felt the ground drop out from under him. He lunged for a rail and held tight as crew members clinging to the metal beneath him gazed up in horror. Twenty—two—year—old steward jeremy Freitag was right below David.

"Don't let go, David! Don't let go!" Jeremy yelled, as two men slid straight down the narrow deck, throught the open rails —and into the ocean. If David lost his grip, he would hurtle down rail like a bowling ball, knocking Jeremy and half doxen more men fight off the end.

Jeremy ground his feet into the metal floor and locked his arms to the rail. "Hold on!" he yelled again at David.

It was pitch—black, the wind whipping across the exposed deck. After a few more seconds the boat seemed to shift upright a bit. Still, the list was at least 30 degrees. People were yelling, "Man in the water! Man in the water!"

Editorial Reviews

Ken Ringle
…a bit over-reported…But once the rescue call goes out, you are with [Thompson] every minute, weighing the vulnerability of a ripped survival suit in 35-degree water, searching the storm-whipped darkness for the flickering strobe lights of near-dead survivors, and thrusting baked potatoes against the skin of the hypothermic victims as frantic medics struggle to raise their core temperature from an icy level that has stopped the heart.
—The Washington Post
