An out-of-this-world middle-grade fiction title which immerses the reader in a page-turning alien adventure.

You are part of a research team who have been sent to another planet to collect plant samples. Just as you prepare to head back to Earth, an alien life form is detected on board your ship. You and the crew are placed on a quarantine island for seven days to check you’re safe. Arguments break out as the crew accuse each other of being infected.

The island is lush, jungle and hot, and a sense of paranoia soon sweeps through the group. Who can you trust on the island? And can you work out who the aliens are before your mind is taken over, too?

This exciting adventure story for readers aged 9+ features a fast-paced branching structure with over 45 possible endings. At the end of each page, there are two distinct options that will take the reader on different paths through the action – meaning that the reader controls the narrative (and their destiny!) throughout.

Twenty illustrated puzzle missions are woven into the narrative at key turning points, so the reader is fully immersed in the story. Featuring gripping plot twists and atmospheric illustrations, this is an alien adventure like no other.
