Summary |
Publisher Annotation: Shy high school junior Riley Kowalski is spending her winter break on a research trip to Antarctica, sponsored by one of the worlds biggest tech companies. She joins five student volunteers, a company-approved chaperone, and an impartial scientist to prove that environmental plastic pollution has reached all the way to Antarctica, but what they find is something much worse something that looks human. Riley has anxiety--ostracized by the kids at school because of panic attacks--so when she starts to feel like somethings wrong with their expedition leader, Greta, she writes it off. But when Greta snaps and tries to kill Riley, she cant chalk it up to an overactive imagination anymore. Worse, after watching Greta disintegrate, only to find another student with the same affliction, she realizes they havent been infected, theyve been infiltrated--by something that can change its shape. And if the group isnt careful, that something could quickly replace any of them. |
