Black Tide Rising, 8

"The Misfit Cruise. For Alvaro, Chloe, and the rest of the crew, it was supposed to be fun. Six mismatched teenagers from every part of society and their crusty British captain aboard the ketch <i>Crosscurrent Voyager</i> headed on a senior year summer cruise to excitement and adventure -- with maybe a little science done along the way. Then the world ended. On land and by sea, a plague spread throughout the globe, killing millions and turning survivors into cannibalistic rage monsters -- zombies, in so many words. Now, Alvaro and the crew he heads must step up to leadership or face disaster. They must seek others who were fortunate enough -- or tough enough -- to have made it through the apocalypse. In order to do so, they must traverse dangerous seas to a European Space Agency complex in French Guiana as thousands of infected stand in the way. But if the crew members of the <i>Voyager</i> are able to use their smarts, courage, and barely functioning GPS receiver to win through and link up with others, then maybe -- just maybe -- the plague won't be the end of humanity's journey after all!" --Back cover
