Within the Depths

By Jodi Clark

Based on a true story. A young couple is struggling financially and dreams of a life on the water. They sell their belongings for an aged, forty-foot cabin cruiser in Norfolk, Virginia. Their new life at Little Creek Marina is even better than they had imagined with their new friends and simpler lifestyle until, late at night on Labor Day, an unforeseen storm struck and sank their vessel in the Chesapeake Bay. With only the eerie darkness around them, they are forced to swim for their lives.
