The girl who once yearned for civilization now finds herself drowning in its waters– still plagued with the memories of her family and the secrets of her past.

When the code is cracked and messages transpire, Nadine’s eyes are opened to the horrors outside her world, and their friendship is tested.

Nadine’s desire for purpose and adventure propels her forward, while Sloan’s grounded nature leaves her begging to stay. Nadine knows what she has to do– but is it worth the risk? Does she truly have anything to lose
