By Grant, Neil

Publishers Summary:
Reminiscent of Alex Garland's The Beach, this action-packed novel brilliantly depicts one teenager's journey to understanding the importance of relationships, responsibility, and revenge.

As their trouble and excitement grow along their epic trip, so does their strength and independence.
