Samantha Martin and her friends continue life normally-well, as normally as your life can be while stuck on a remote island. Hunting, fishing, and the Village's nightly bonfire help keep Samantha's mind off of her very sick mother, who is getting worse by the day.
The calmness of island life comes to a halt when another unlucky soul finds themselves stranded, causing quite the commotion.
Max has set off with Samantha's father and others, hopeful to find a doctor that would have her mother's cure. Docking on a promising island, they find a doctor, but he's lying in a pool of his own blood.
Can Samantha handle all the new duties that she's had to take on? Can Max make it back with a doctor before it's too late?
