About this listen

When ambition leads to disaster, survival becomes a journey of redemption.

Huxley Perdu thought landing a prestigious job would fix everything—his crumbling marriage, his insecurities, the distance growing in his relationships. But after an accident during an orientation trip, Huxley finds himself stranded on a deserted island with his brother, Monty, fighting not just for survival, but for his sanity.

As time passes, Huxley grapples with more than hunger and isolation. Haunted by visions of the life he left behind—of Sassa struggling alone, of a daughter he’s never met—he’s forced to confront the man he became and the damage he caused. Meanwhile, the island holds darker secrets: a derelict warplane, a hidden cave, and tortured memories regained.

If rescue comes, will Huxley be able to return to a world that moved on without him, to a wife who may never forgive him, and to a child who doesn’t know his face? But the island changed him in ways he never expected—and perhaps it’s not too late to become the man he should have been all along.
