Viac o knihe

Set against the backdrop of a harrowing shipwreck in 1742, a group of British sailors survives a disastrous mission only to face accusations of mutiny and murder. After months stranded on a desolate island, thirty men escape in a makeshift vessel, claiming heroism, while three castaways present a starkly different narrative. As a court martial unfolds, the true nature of survival, human behavior, and the moral complexities of empire come to light. This gripping tale intertwines adventure with a profound exploration of loyalty and treachery.
