When a collapsing U.S. government abandoned an Alaska ravaged by earthquakes and wildfires, Travis’s family chose not to evacuate. Too late, they realized their mistake.
Now Travis and his younger sister Jess must cross hundreds of miles to head south, in search of what remains of civilization. The wilderness they’re crossing is filled with ravenous animals and strangers competing for dwindling resources. Travis and Jess will make a few friends and a lot of enemies on their terrifying journey—and they'll have to fight for what they believe in as they see how far people will go to survive.
This pulse-pounding thriller, full of shocking plot twists, reads like a zombie story without the zombies—just hardscrabble survivors competing for society’s remains.
Author Information
Living in Alaska for over twenty-five years, Paul Greci has seen bears fishing for salmon, a pair of bald eagles building a nest, and polar bears gnawing on a whale carcass. Paul’s debut middle-grade adventure/survival novel, Surviving Bear Island, a Junior Library Guild Selection and a Scholastic Reading Club Pick, came out in March 2015 from Move Books. Besides teaching as a profession, Paul has also worked as a field biology technician in remote corners of Alaska, a backpacking trip leader for teens, a teacher, and a naturalist for several outdoor education programs. When he’s not writing or teaching, Paul spends lots of time exploring the Alaskan wilderness on foot and by kayak.
