Fifteen-year-old Quinn is dragged to Campbell Island by her mother, a scientist who studies birds. Quinn doesn't expect much will happen on remote Campbell Island - just a year of boredom away from her friends and her normal life. She doesn't expect the appearance of the beautiful and mysterious Jeroen or the massive storm that hits the island and devastates the scientists' base, forcing them to leave. Quinn and Jeroen find themselves back on the mainland and discover that everything in the world as they knew it has changed. The power is out, the phones aren't working, and everyone seems to have vanished ... How do you survive in this new world and who can you trust?
