Sail

This is an okay book co-written by James Patterson and Howard Roughan. The Dunne family was hoping for a fun getaway sailing through the Atlantic Ocean, but soon troubles arise. Carrie, the eldest child, throws herself off the boat in a bid for attention that almost leads to her death. Sixteen-year-old Mark goes below deck to smoke pot, and ten-year-old Ernie is nearly catatonic from boredom. The kids’ mother and their late father’s brother are also on board. The ship is exposed to stormy weather, flooding, and even a fire, as the family tries desperately to stay afloat.
