The Encounter
Harry Richardson, successful retired businessman now divorced and approaching middle age; according to one of his neighbours, he was ‘coasting downhill to old age and death’.
Then a bizarre chance meeting reveals romantic possibilities, but they develop in a way that nobody could foresee; probably!
Kidnapped and marooned upon a remote and deserted island with his recent acquaintance, they search for a reason for their incarceration.
At the same time a thousand miles away a decrepit Russian trawler returning home from a long voyage, low on fuel, food and morale turns around and motors as fast as it can directly back towards them through ravaging gale force seas.
Closer by, a brigade of the US Army’s Engineers are embarking upon a training exercise, or are they?
Even Harry’s leading lady is not quite what she seems and a troubled past is lurking just below the surface threatening to come back and haunt her.
If he is to survive and get the girl he must break out of his comfortable retirement and make changes; the future is a clean page . . . but it can be perilous!
