Tucker
Pierce lives with his family on Pemberwick Island with his family. His dad has a landscaping business where
Tucker helps out. Tucker is on the
football team but is a bench warmer and he is good with that. When the star running back can no longer play
Tucker is called up. Mysteriously the
island is quarantined by the U.S. Navy Tucker suspects something isn’t quite
right. An elite group of the military called SYLO has taken over the island as
people start to die and all communication is cut off. Tucker meets Tori, a local island girl, and
together they try to put a stop to the things SYLO is doing. They get captured and uncover secrets. What is SYLO?
Who on the island can they trust?
Can they get help?
Action is the thing that makes this book go. Right from the first chapter there is a lot going on. A fun and exciting book that
will draw boy readers in.
