A late-night transoceanic flight meets with disaster, and the entire plane vanishes over the vast ocean.
After months of searching, the outside world finds no definite wreckage. Everyone assumes the flight has been lost at sea.
Lu Shen is the sole survivor.
After drifting for a long time in the frigid water, he awakens on an uninhabited island, isolated from the world.
There is no distress signal, no tools or means to make fire, no food or fresh water. All he has is the clothes soaked through on his back.
There are no miraculous encounters, no superpowers, and no one else.
Relying on the little wilderness survival knowledge he has, he faces the raw, untamed island.
He learns to identify plants, find fresh water, make crude tools by hand, and build a place to shelter.
He fails to start fires, makes mistakes while foraging, and suffers injuries. Hunger, cold, and illness are constant companions.
This is not an exciting, perilous adventure. It is the true record of an ordinary person struggling to survive day after day on a deserted island.
