Safe from the Sea - Peter Geye

Safe from the Sea

by Peter Geye

Safe from the Sea tells the story of a son returning home to reconcile with his estranged father while they relive the story of a horrific Great Lakes shipwreck that the father has only partially survived and that has divided them emotionally ever since. At times a harrowing tale of survival, at others an intimate look at forgiveness and the indubitable bonds between a father and son, here is a timeless story for readers of every stripe.
