parents and runs away to sea. He is plagued by misfortune at
every turn, his first ship sinks in a violent storm, his friend
and mentor dies, then he is captured by Turkish pirates and made
a slave in the Moorish port of Sallee. Through all these
hardships, Crusoe?s determination and resourcefulness fills him
with hope for a better life, and fate delivers him the
opportunity for freedom, friendship and riches. But it is when he
is shipwrecked on a deserted island that he faces his greatest
test, not simply to survive but to thrive.
The island is filled with beauty and riches of its own kind and
here Crusoe is king, but it is blighted by a terrible danger a
hidden horror that threatens not only Crusoe's encampment but his
very life.
