<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>On September 11, 1984, an American merchant ship is seized at gunpoint by the Soviet Union in the Bering Strait just north of the Diomede Islands and taken to Siberia. This is the true story of how five young American sailors take a stand for their faith against high-ranking officers in the Soviet military.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"You do it our way. Here, there is no God."</p><p>On September 11, 1984, I was taken hostage by the Soviet Union and held captive in Siberia. Few have the courage to follow their dream. Mine led from a small town in upstate New York to a dingy cell in Siberia. Leaving my hometown with a yearning for adventure, my travels brought me to Alaska where I obtained work on a merchant ship skippered by one of the youngest ship captains in the United States. Two years later, on a freight-hauling mission to the Arctic, our ship was seized by the Soviet Union and taken hostage to Siberia. Held at gunpoint and threatened with 30 years in prison, this is the story of how five young American sailors took a stand for their faith against high-ranking officers in the Soviet military. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A must read.

I was fascinated to learn about the hard life of a deep sea fisherman and the trauma of Russian interrogation, but I was especially touched by Mr. Burrall's spiritual journey among such extraordinary circumstances."</p><p>"Mr. Burrall captured my attention in the first paragraph. As the true story unfolded, I couldn't wait to see what happens to the crew of the Frieda-K ! A must read for teen boys and older who enjoy maritime details and adventure. I read it to my four children age 5 - 12, and they all enjoyed it."</p><p>"Believe me, you won't regret this buy! Definetly the best book I've read in a long time.
