Small Boat is a short novel based on a real incident in 2021, when a dinghy carrying immigrants from France to the UK capsized, causing the deaths of 21 on board, sparing two. While the dinghy was submerging, calls were made to both French and English officials seeking help, but they were left waiting until death arrived. This book captures what went through the minds of the victims as they awaited rescue and the French official who believed they did not deserve to be saved.
