For more than a decade, the world's oceans have been home to Michael and Sarah Stone and their young daughter Ronnie, who live aboard the sailing yacht Veronica, bringing medical care to remote islands. But their peaceful life is shattered when a medical distress call summons Sarah and Ronnie to a gargantuan commercial vessel lying still and ominous in the equatorial Pacific. Michael, left behind to tend to an ailing islander, watches with growing horror as Veronica is hauled on to the deck of the hulking metal behemoth and is carried away. Stranded and alone a thousand miles from civilization, with only a primitive canoe at his disposal and no navigatinal equipment except the stars, Michael Stone must now do the impossible. He must find his kidnapped family and rescue them from the clutches of a madman. And, unbeknownst to him, Sarah and Ronnie's are not the only lives at Stake...

I was really surprised how much I enjoyed this book. I will read this author again. I think you would really like it a lot.
ok
Really 'terrific' book ...suspense suspense suspense. I liked all the characters and they were well-drawn. It is a very well-written sea-story. I read it in one sitting; believe THAT. It's about a married couple, both are physicians who travel in their sailboat (not exactly small) around the Pacific helping islanders.
Great Read. Paul Garrison is a master of suspense on the water!
