Synopsis
It's almost a year since fifteen-year-old Matt and his younger brother, Tom, rowed out to the island... Matt, now confined to a wheelchair and haunted by nightmares, can't remember what happened. Nor does he want to. Then, when Matt's new carer - Sarah Bell, a no-nonsense Geordie - arrives, things begin to change for him. She isn't like the other carers; or anyone he's ever met. Sarah's attention meanwhile, is focussed on Robert, Matt's psychiatrist. Mature, attractive, he seems to be exactly what she needs. But Robert struggles with his own problems. As the floating island returns to the surface of the lake, Robert forces Matt to confront the truth about his brother's death - but unwittingly exposes him to an adult world he's unprepared for...
