Flotilla is an unyielding exploration of people and technology in a perilous world. When 15-year-old Jim joins his father on Colony D, he thinks it's a free pass out of rehab to spend the summer on a man-made island in the Pacific, leaving his troubles marooned on the mainland. His Dad has secrets of his own and when things stop adding up, Jim makes a horrible discovery. But now, that's the least of his problems. The United States come under attack, and Jim's parents go missing. Drug runners and modern-day pirates are coming to settle a score. All he and his sister have now are an old boat, limited supplies, and each other. Jim must race against time if he wants to escape the catastrophic meltdown of civilization.
