Suddenly

"A haunting survival story where every choice has a price."

Ludovic and Louise are a young Parisian couple who decide to leave their comfortable lives behind for a year-long sailing trip around the world. But when they decide to explore a deserted, restricted island near the Antarctic, their dream turns into a nightmare. A sudden, violent storm sweeps away their boat, leaving them stranded with nothing but the clothes on their backs and a few dwindling supplies.

Suddenly is a raw, psychological thriller that explores the thin line between civilization and savagery. Written by world-renowned sailor Isabelle Autissier, the novel captures the terrifying power of nature and the desperate lengths humans will go to for survival.
