In the summer of 1727, a group of men and boys from St Kilda are put ashore on a remote sea stac to harvest birds for food. No one returns to collect them. Why? Surely nothing but the end of the world can explain why they have been abandoned to endure storms, starvation and terror., And how can they survive, imprisoned on every side by the ocean? Inspired by a true event, this is a breathtaking story of nine boys and the courage it takes to survive against the odds, from three-time winner of the Whitbread/Costa Children's Book Award Geraldine McCaughrean.

Críticas:
Brilliant, beautiful...as unpredictable as the sea itself. --Philip Reeve, author of Mortal Engines
Harshly beautiful, and stark with near-despair, this is an unsettling, deeply original historical novel. --The Guardian
McCaughrean writes extraordinary books: emotionally thunderous stories that evoke place and atmosphere with uncommon vigour, and are expressed with exhilarating precision of language... --The Sunday Times
An awe-inspiring writer. --Sunday Telegraph
One of the most immersive and compelling works of fiction we've read in quite some time... Suffice it to say that the novel is rounded off with consummate skill and the result is an outstanding example of the storyteller's art. --Undiscovered Scotland
Everything Geraldine McCaughrean touches turns to gold. --The Sunday Times
A must-read... a heart-stopping survival story [that] will appeal to mini Bear Gryllses --The Times
The best book I've read this year - Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Girl of Ink and Stars
This story will remain lodged in your mind after reading. --The Scottish Field
Beyond my very high expectations. It is the work of someone who has written well for decades. It is a triumph. --Book Murmuration

GERALDINE MCCAUGHREAN is one of today's most successful and highly regarded children's authors. She has won the CILIP Carnegie Medal twice: first in 1998 with A Pack of Lies and again in 2018 with Where the World Ends. She's won the IBW Book Award 2018, the Whitbread Children's Book Award three times, the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, the Smarties Bronze Award four times, the prestigious U.S. Printz Award and the Blue Peter Book of the Year Award. She was chosen to write the official sequel to J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan, Peter Pan in Scarlet, which was published to wide critical acclaim. Geraldine lives in Berkshire with her husband John and the lingering shades of all those characters she has invented in her books. Her cottage is under year-round siege from wild birds demanding to be fed. The ducks even knock on the door.
