Less than forty-eight hours after twelve-year-old Chris sets off on a sailing trip down the Alaskan coast with his uncle, their boat sinks. The only survivors are Chris and a boy named Frank, who hates Chris immediately. Suddenly, they've got to forage, fish, and scavenge the shore for supplies. The boys have to get along if they want to survive, because as the days get colder and the salmon migration ends, survival will take more than sheer force of will. Eventually, in the wilderness of Alaska, the boys discover an improbable bond, and the compassion that might truly be the path to rescue.
