Allein auf dem Meer

Bill is the only one who survives the sinking of the yacht off the coast of Morocco. Alone in a small boat, he rescues Aya, a Berber girl who has been caught in the same storm. For many weeks, the two drift lost at sea, at the mercy of the relentless sun. Only the nights when Aya – like Scheherazade – tells stories from 1001 Nights can give them hope. Eventually, they wash up on a small island, where a completely different danger awaits. A relentlessly thrilling novel that deeply explores the beauty and terror of the sea.
