Summary
When global warming starts to destroy their civilization, Zoe Black embarks on a perilous adventure on the great sea to find her parents, who accidently left her behind when they escaped, but an unexpected detour to Eels Island, a horrifying world run by wild children, leads to a new alliance and the promise of a new world.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: What if the sea began to rise . . . and rise . . . until the land began to disappear? A brilliant futuristic fantasy by an acclaimed new writer.
Global warming has caused the sea to rise until cities are turning into islands and civilization is crumbling. Ten-year-old Zoe Black was left behind on Norwich by accident when her parents escaped in the last supply ship to visit the island. Zoe discovers a small rowboat and keeps it a secret until she can set out alone on the great sea to find her parents. She lands on tiny Eels Island, where she must survive in a nightmarish world run by wild children and their boy-leader, Dooby. Zoe and a boy called Munchkin escape and cross the sea to the mainland, to find not only Zoe's parents but a new family and a new world.
