Description
Part-time Navy Cadets, fifteen-year-old Carmen and her younger brother, Andrew, join with a group of friends and their parents on a camping trip to Endeavour Island.
Hidden off the coast of Far North Queensland in the Coral Sea, this lush, tropical paradise is full of stunning beauty-and, unknown to them, deadly secrets.
But when this fun-filled escape turns into a fight for survival, Carmen and Andrew must rely on their wits, courage, and every bit of their cadet training to navigate dangers they never expected.
As they face these perils, they are forced to confront their deepest fears. As they make hard choices in the struggle to stay alive, they discover much about themselves and what it means to be true to yourself.
Join Carmen, Andrew, and their friends on an unforgettable adventure where the stakes are high, the lessons are hard, and survival isn't guaranteed.
This is a coming-of-age story with some sexual references and violence. Not suitable for primary school readers.
