The island was abandoned for fifty years.
So how did the body get there?
Five-hundred kilometres from land in the middle of Atlantic Ocean lies Navigaceo, a tiny island hastily deserted fifty years ago and uninhabited ever since. Until now.
Tess Macfarlane is part of the very first return expedition and, as a documentary filmmaker, her job is to record everything she sees. Whatever Tess is expecting to find, it is not a body. Recently killed and wearing the uniform of the expedition team.
It soon becomes clear that someone on Tess's team is a killer. With five days until she can return to the mainland and no idea who to trust, can Tess avoid becoming the next body discovered on the shore?
