The Back-Up Plan Margaret Eubanks

Two middle-aged friends go on vacation together. Simple, right? But with Prissy and Sissy, nothing is ever simple! A short boating expedition aboard the Moby Dick to go deep sea fishing finds the two lost in a storm at sea, straddling the bottom of a life boat. Shortly thereafter, the two blondes are trapped on an uninhabited island with pirates on one hand and the captain of the Moby Dick on the other. Is the captain to be trusted? Hungry, lost, desperate for wine and cigarettes, the two blondes wander the shoreline, searching for food and befriending a monkey named Spot. They find pirates. They find a dead body. They find treasure. They find themselves, ultimately, between a rock and a hard place, with only each other to count on. But will they find a back-up plan to get them off of the island?
