The sole survivor of a torpedoed destroyer is miraculously cast up on a huge, barren rock in mid-Atlantic. Pitted against him are the sea, the sun, the night cold, and the terror of his isolation.
At the core of this raging tale of physical and psychological violence lies Christopher Martin’s will to live as the sum total of his life.
