'Franklin wakes from a fitful sleep plagued by bad dreams to find his nightmares are reality. Cast adrift on a frozen sea, he waits for rescue. His parents are dead. Murdered by thieves who desired the Book of Oceans.

If they are to survive, the four human islands must put aside their long-held prejudices and place their hope in Franklin, and the prophecy of the Smilodon's return.'
