A small boat. A drifting sheet of ice. A storm that does not forgive.
When three men set out from a remote Alaska village in good weather, they expect to return before nightfall. Instead, a miscalculation, a shifting tide, and a rising storm push them into open water with no fuel and no way home.
Carried south across the Bering Sea on a sheet of drifting ice, they survive by instinct, restraint, and the smallest decisions made at the edge of exhaustion. As the storm tightens and hope thins, they discover that courage alone is not enough.
Margin is what brings men home.
Told through layered voices-on the ice and years later on the spit where it began-Margin on the Bering is a powerful novel of survival, responsibility, and the weight of being watched by the next generation.
For readers of wilderness fiction and hard-earned redemption, this is a story about the sea, the men it tests, and the rare occasions when it gives someone back.
