The third installment of the #1 New York Times bestselling series. Roz must leave the safety of land to confront a toxic threat lurking in the deep ocean.

Extended Synopsis

Life on the island has finally reached a perfect equilibrium for Roz and her animal family. However, this peace is shattered when mysterious, dangerous "poison tide" waters begin to encircle their home. As the toxic waves take a devastating toll, the animals are forced inland, leading to conflict over dwindling resources. Realizing that leadership requires more than just organization, Roz makes the difficult choice to leave her beloved island and venture into the unknown depths of the ocean to find the source of the pollution.
