Twenty-six-year-old Caleb Ward leaves the ocean in his canoe on a Saturday morning. It's a weekend exercise. He has little water. He expects to be gone less than a few hours. Then a violent storm hits. The current drags him miles from shore and deposits him on the only land in sight — a small, deserted island in the middle of the ocean. No rescue. No signal. No one coming. To survive, Caleb must hunt for food, find fresh water, build shelter, and hold himself together mentally while he waits for a rescue that may never come. Every day is a fight. Every decision matters. Every mistake could be his last. Adrift is a gripping survival story about one man stripped of everything — and what he discovers about himself when there is nothing left but the will to live.
