Welcome to the Arcadia.

Once a luxurious cruise ship, it is now home to the stranded. For forty years, they have lived and died on the water.

A place of extreme haves and have-nots, gangs and makeshift shelters, its people are tyrannized by a country they can see but can't reach. A country that says it doesn't want them.

Esther is a loyal citizen, working tirelessly for a rare chance to live a life on land. Nik is a rebel, intent on liberating the Arcadia once and for all.

Together, they will change the future.

What readers are saying about The Stranded:

"A pacy, gripping read that plunges you into this near-future dystopia from the first page."

"A real page-turner, with relatable characters and lots of twists and turns... if you loved Station Eleven, this will be right up your street."

"This is honestly one of the best action-centered books I've read in a while! Think Titanic meets The Hunger Games!".
