Deception Island

When a rescue team arrives at Deception Island to evacuate scientists from an erupting volcano, they discover everyone has vanished without a trace. Cut off from the outside world and trapped on an island with deadly secrets, Abbie must uncover the truth before the volcano – or something far more sinister – claims her life.

Deception Island, a sunken volcano, is about to blow – and the scientists studying it need evacuating. It’s a race against time, and nature.

But when they land on the island they find it completely deserted.

As they search for signs of life other strange things start to happen: the radio is cut-off and then their boat disappears…

Deception Island holds many secrets, but Abbie is worried about just one question:

Will she make it off it alive?
