Uncharted Seas 

In the face of an Atlantic hurricane, a boatload of mis-matched crew and passengers find themselves aboard a life-boat and must pit their strength against the rigours of the open sea. Tension mounts both inside and outside the rescue vessel – the desirable Synolda is forced into the arms of a man who knows her past and uses that knowledge. A man with hatred in his eyes a hatred that can only be satisfied with blood.There is mutiny and murder before the unrelenting Sargasso weed entombs them all. But suddenly land is sighted land unmarked on the chart, concealing further, unimaginable horrors.
