Bookroo's summary

In a future where England is submerged, Zoe is stranded on a desolate island after her parents' escape. Navigating through perilous gangs, she discovers a boat and flees to Eels Island, only to find new threats under the rule of the enigmatic Dooby. Driven by the hope of reuniting with her family, Zoe's journey is one of courage and resilience, leading to a surprising and heartfelt conclusion. Will she find safety and her lost family, or will the dangers of this waterlogged world prove too great?

From the publisher

Imagine that England is covered with water and Norwich is an island. Zoe survives there as best she can. Alone and desperate among gangs, she manages to dig a derelict boat out of the mud and gets away to Eels island. But it too is full of danger.
