Another WILD adventure from Rodman Philbrick, author of Wildfireand Wild River. When two kids become trapped in the aftermath of a tsunami, they must figure out a way to find help. It's kids vs. nature in another edge-of-your seat read!

When a tsunami heads for the coast, Nick Chase and Jess Hardy must run. They make it into the woods above the bay--only to witness the sea flooding their neighborhood along the shore. Destroying everything.

In the broken landscape that's left behind, the two must try to find their way to safety. But when they come across a stranded elderly couple, it's up to Nick and Jess to work together and get help so that they can all make it out alive.

This is another gripping environmental survival story from the Newbery Honor author of Wildfire and Wild River.
