The conch was meant to keep them civilized. It was meant to give them a voice.
When a group of schoolchildren are stranded on a deserted island, the rules they once knew begin to disappear. Friendships are tested, innocence is lost, and the line between civilization and savagery becomes thinner than anyone imagined.
Among them are the choir children, the boys and girls who once stood together in perfect uniforms, singing in harmony. But the island changes them all.
For Lydia, a girl who once found her voice through music, survival means losing the very thing that made her who she was. For Maurice, it means facing the person he became and the choices he made.
Years after the rescue, the survivors must discover whether they can truly leave the island behind or if they will carry it with them forever.
Beyond the conch lies the truth of what they became.
