Twenty teens. Abducted. To play a game of man hunt.

Like the Hunger Games series? Then you'll love ''Man Hunt'' When Alice awakes in a small, bare room with nothing more than a letter, a backpack, a change of clothes and some survival gear, she doesn't know what to expect. She has no recollection of how she got to where she is, or even where she is and she can't help but feel frightened about the whole situation. According to the letter addressed to her name, her parents signed her up for a new televised game show in which twelve teenagers will be split into two equal teams. The teenagers will then take part in a slightly modified version of a childhood game they are all quite familiar with for the chance to win a sum of €1,000,000 for every member of the winning team. When Alice meets the rest of her group, they soon realise that they are stranded on an island and they have no other option but to cooperate. They quickly find the instructions and map their team has been supplied with and are forced to begin a game which they fear is darker than it may seem. The twelve teenagers can't be any more different, however they must push their divergence aside and hope that they have what it takes to win the game and return home with the money that could change their lives forever. In a tale of adventure, action and deceit; do Alice and her team have what it takes to leave the island as champions or is there a more sinister fate in store for them? Is this really just a game as their letters describe, or are there darker forces at work behind closed doors?

Clio, Okie's grandmother, lives in Toronto; but since the zombie apocalypse, Toronto's a lot further away than it used to be.

I refuse to say "dear diary." After all, I'm not some thirteen year old girl writing about how my mom just redecorated my room to match my pink plush pillows (try saying that three times, fast). I won't write about how I'm not a kid anymore, or how my parents embarrassed me in front of my friends. I don't have a bedroom. I don't have parents. I don't have friends. And, most importantly; I don't have pink plush pillows. I'm a sixteen year old girl who won't be wasting paper, a material that is so hard to acquire, just to write about such frivolous subjects. On these pages, I'll be talking about what's happened to the world and what I've been through. I'll write about what I'm going through, my thoughts and feelings, and whatever else I can think of, while Marine Stevens (you'll find out more about him later) and I avoid people, avoid things that want to eat us; and survive in the rubble that's left.
