THREE YOUNG ADULTS ARE INVITED to spend a weekend at the exotic Timber Island. Maria is a professional in the sport of bodyboarding. Tina is an apprentice of the sport but very athletic, and she possesses other skills. And lastly there is Axell, a traveler and a veteran bodyboarder. For them, this invitation is extremely attractive because very few people have visited the place, also known for its secret surf breaks. The adventure sounds irresistible, so they accept the challenge.
Once all the guests are on the island, there is only one thing that worries Luis, their host and fellow bodyboarder: to venture out to find a stretch of secret coastline where the young man says they will face majestic wave no one has ever ridden.
By this time all of the guests have encountered some very strange things ... and some question whether they are being watched by someone. But who may want to follow them to an island inhabited by only two people, and for what reason? Are these young riders prepared to solve this mystery and accept what they discover as they investigate? Luckily, you'll also be there to accompany them on their journey and reach your own conclusions in this exciting adventure.

Totally enjoyed this book! Its been an amazing and relaxing experience to read this book about adventures and about one of my favorite sports. We spend to much time reading books that have to do with our careers, however it's very important to read other good books that help us relax and take us in a different trip. Looking forward for the next one!
Enjoy the trip!

I am a retired social studies and English teacher.
There is a lot of decision making along the story. The characters will set expectations towards triumph and how to achieve their goals using team work, confidence and commitment.
I read the story after my retirement; I would have definitely given it a try as a special project. Allowing my students to create an art project based on their favorite scene or characters. You can assign students to recreate the story setting using cardboard and plaster. Reimagining scenes and characters is a fun way to encourage creativity.
It can serve as a fun wrap up -unit reading assignment- for middle school grades, when studding geography, biology, and language arts. Ninth and tenth graders would also find the contents of the book to be very interesting for them.
