A new action-adventure hero is born... Fifteen-year-old Will Drake has made a career of breaking out from high-security prisons.

His talents have landed him at the Rig, a specialist juvenile holding facility in the middle of the Arctic Ocean.

No one can escape from the Rig. No one except for Drake... After making some escape plans and meeting the first real friends of his life, Drake quickly realises that all is not as it seems on the Rig.

The Warden is obsessed with the mysterious Crystal-X - a blue, glowing substance that appears to give superpowers to the teens exposed to it.

Drake, Tristan and Irene are banking on a bid for freedom - but can they survive long enough to make it?

Drake is an action hero to rival Jason Bourne and the CHERUB team in this debut author's fantastically imagined sci-fi nightmare.
