After a rough summer, Rafe is heading back to the dreaded HillsVillage Middle Sc
hool, the site of the very worst years of his life. And as if that's not bad eno
ugh, Rafe's learned that he's going to be held back a year unless he can prove h
imself on an outdoor survival excursion - complete with dangerous white-water ra
fting, dizzying rock climbing and military style counsellors. Rafe and the rest
of the pack of 'delinquent' trainees are forced to cooperate as they prepare for
the final test: a solo excursion in the deep woods.
Can Rafe come out of the
experience in one piece? And if he does, will anyone recognise him as the kid t
hey once knew?
