From AudioFile:
Expert sailor Tami Oldham Ashcraft describes how love united her with British seafarer Richard Sharp. After their engagement, the couple sets off from Tahiti to San Diego to deliver a magnificent sailboat for its owners. After 20 days at sea, somewhere near Central America, a hurricane encircles them. The boat capsizes, and Richard is lost at sea. Although a novice narrator, Ashcraft's inner strength is revealed as she spellbindingly relives those 42 excruciating days navigating the sea-ravaged sailboat while desperately trying to maintain her sanity.
