โฆ Synopsis
When the Seattle Express goes adriftโฆโฉโฉThe Seattle Express, a 700-foot container ship bound for Seattle, is on fire in the Gulf of Alaska. โฉโฉThree hundred miles away, on Washingtonโs Olympic Peninsula, Larry and Louise fire up their old tug, Warhorse, and head into the open ocean to salvage the burning vessel. The money from a salvage claim might just save their business. But itโs a race against time, the elements, and the secretive, powerful Buckhorn corporation, owner of the Seattle Express, who launches its own high-speed tugs hot on Warhorseโs tail.โฉโฉOnboard the crippled ship, William (whom readers of Strong Heart will remember), fears this disaster may become a dark homecoming for him on the jagged shores of Haida Gwaii, the remote islands off British Columbia, where William was born and where he now may meet his fate. After Williamโs lifeboat goes missing for days, Williamโs daughter, Myra, and friends Sarah, Tom, and Sergei form a desperate plan. โฉโฉStrong Heart took readers deep into the storied wilderness of the Pacific Northwest. In Adrift, Sheldon, a veteran of the sea himself, carries the story into a beautiful, brutal frontier of ice, wind, slicing cold, roiling waves, and ancient, mystic faith.
