Losing Julie's mother had delayed their honeymoon and now Steve and Julie Farrow had taken a luxury cruise in the tropics. They had docked in several islands and now they were in Barbados and on a busy beach lazing in the sun. Steve suggested they go out on a jet ski. Never having been or driven one before they each went with a driver. It had been fun, but when Julie didn't come back, Steve became worried. The jet ski had broken down and Julie and the driver had drifted for hours and then found themselves stranded and starving on a deserted island. After months Julie had been found and she returned to her London life with Steve. They were happy meeting their friends and enjoying life as it used to be, until disaster struck again. It seemed that their married life had been a disaster from the very first day.
