When sixteen year-old Arisa McDonald and her friends sign up to chaperone a handful of junior and senior high students on a trip to prestigious Camp Ventner, they assume that a few unruly kids will be the worst of their problems. When their plane crashes on a deserted island, leaving them stranded without any way to communicate with the outside world, they think things can't get any worse. They have no way of knowing that the crash was no accident and that, if they ever want to get home, they'll have to face dangers far greater than the elements.
