The disaster felt around the

world...

It's hard enough that Ben is visiting Japan only four months after

his dad's death, especially since it's where his dad grew up.

But one morning, Ben's grief turns to fear when a massive earthquake

rocks the quiet coastal village where he's staying. His family

narrowly escapes a collapsing house, only to find that the ocean

is rising up. Ben and his family are swept away and pulled apart

by a devastating tsunami.

Now Ben is alone, stranded in an unfamiliar country thousands

of miles from home. Can he find enough courage and strength to survive

one of the most epic disasters of all time?
