A strange, gloomy, shadowy true story of deaths at sea is this one and it will play tricks inside your head. The mysterious actions and words of the skipper (the husband) form a devious maze of indecipherable oceanic madness. Bernard and Louise Longo and five-year-old daughter start out on a pleasant summer sail in the always unsettled Bay of Biscay. A wreck, days in a boat, unable to flag down ships passing by, bring things to a head. Louise gets to safety in Spain. The husband and child are dead. What happened? A good little thriller. A true one. * Book World * Written in a spare, no-holds-barred style, skillfully translated from the original French, this is the most compelling story of shipwreck and survival of the last several decades. * I.M.
