'When the world burns, all you have is each other. With his home and family torn apart after the attack on Pearl Harbor, 16-year-old Murph Turner is evacuated to a wild town on the Australian coastline. An outsider in a bizarre land, he falls in with Micki, a gorgeous but mysterious girl on the run from the authorities, and Banjo, a hilarious Aboriginal scamp with pyrotechnic tendencies. All three are running from their past and, despite his misgivings, Murph finds himself drawn to Micki. But even as war clouds gather on the horizon, they are suddenly catapulted into a deadly conspiracy that could shatter their world and destroy everyone they love.' (Source: Amazon website)
