When their country is invaded and their families are taken, eight high school teenagers band together to fight.

Seventeen-year-old Ellie Linton wants one final adventure with her friends before the school holidays are over. Packed in Ellie's parents' land rover they drive to the famously isolated rock pool Eden dubbed 'Hell' by the locals.

Returning to their home town of Wirrawee, the seven teenagers realize that something is seriously wrong. Power to the houses has been cut, pets and livestock have been left dead or dying, and most alarmingly of all, everyone's family has vanished.

When the hostile armed forces discover that the teenagers are lying low in the vicinity, Ellie and her friends must band together to escape, outwit and strike back against the mysterious enemy that has seized control of their town and imprisoned their friends and loved ones...

my review.

I had watched the film before reading the book after watching the film and loving it i decided to buy the book.

The book was well written and interesting. The storyline was exciting and heart felt at times but even with all this i had a hard time reading it. The book itself was great but me personal i cant read anything that's about was and fighting. I have always read fiction, fantasy and stuff like that. Even though the book was really good my mind could not get into the book.

I will say that just because i did not get into it does not mean that you will be the same the was good but just not for me.

** stars.
