Ana Dakkar is studying at Harding-Pencroft Academy, a school renowned for training the best marine scientists, naval warriors and underwater explorers in the world. But, unlike the other students, the water is personal for Ana. After losing both of her parents on a scientific expedition, her older brother Dev is now the only family she has.

Ready to prove herself, Ana and her class are off to a top-secret weekend trial at sea. But, on the bus ride to the ship, tragedy strikes and Ana and her classmates are plunged into a deadly battle that will change the trajectory of their lives forever.

As secrets about her past surface, it's up to Ana to lead her classmates out of danger.

About the author

Rick Riordan

Rick Riordan is a teacher and a writer, and has won many awards for his mystery novels for adults. He says that the idea for Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief first came to him while he was teaching Greek mythology at middle school in San Francisco. But rumour has it that Camp Half Blood actually exists, and Rick spends his summers there recording the adventures of young demigods. Some believe that, to avoid a mass panic among the mortal population, he was forced to swear on the River Styx to present Percy Jackson's story as fiction. Rick lives in Texas (apart from his summers on Half Blood Hill) with his wife and two sons.
