An extraordinary true story of shipwreck, survival and love

''An enthralling, engrossing story of survival'' Bill Bryson
An absolute jewel of a book' India Knight
A gripping tale of adventure' Elizabeth Day
An extraordinary survival story' Sunday Times

Bored of 1970s suburban life, Maurice and Maralyn plan their escape: sell the house, build a boat, set sail for New Zealand. Then, halfway around the world, their beloved boat is struck by a whale and the pair are cast adrift in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Alone on a tiny raft, their love is put to the test. This is a book about human connection and the human condition; about how we survive not just at sea, but in life.

This skilful storytelling drew me in very touching indeed' James Rebanks
With the adrenaline kick of Jaws . . . A remarkable portrait of a marriage kept afloat against the odds' Financial Times
This dramatic, profound human story is so beautifully told. I really could not put it down' Nina Stibbe
