On May 19, 1942, during WWII, a U-boat in the Gulf of Mexico
stalked its prey fifty miles from New Orleans. The submarine set
its sights on the freighter Heredia. Most onboard were merchant
seamen, but there were also civilians, including the Downs family:
Ray and Ina and their two children. Fast asleep in their berths,
the Downs family had no idea that two torpedoes were heading their
way. When the ship exploded, chaos ensued - and each family member
had to find their own path to survival. This inspiring historical
narrative tells the story of the Downs family as they struggle
against sharks, hypothermia, drowning, and dehydration in their
effort to survive the aftermath of this deadly attack off the
American coast. For fans of Refugee and Unbroken.
