It’s the summer of 2012. In Russia, the newly-elected President is tightening his grip on power while the UK focusses on preparations for the Olympics. Donny has dropped out of school, left Strong Winds, and is heading north on an oligarch’s superyacht with a canister of toxic waste. His journey will take him across the Arctic Circle and into the Barents Sea. Here he may find answers to questions that have troubled him all his life – and others which he has never thought to ask. But who will he meet on the way and can he ever return to the life he has left behind?

This is the final adventure in a series which has appealed to many adult readers as well as to older children.
