In 1896, young Sam Deal witnesses a shipwreck off Pea Island. With his horse, Ginger, he dreams of joining the heroic surfmen in their daring rescue. Can Sam help save the stranded souls, or will the sea claim them? As the waves crash, courage and destiny collide in this gripping tale of bravery and hope.
