It’s a story of heroic rescue, of risk and rescue on the quasi-high sea. It’s the story of Hege Dalen and Toril Hansen, a married lesbian couple (you can do that in Norway :)) who rescued 40 teenagers from the massacre in Norway. A big thank-you to the blogger who brought it my attention. And to the generous editor who reminded me that I’m still a journalist :).
