Without a working office, Jeremiah is tasked with repairing the automated weather station on Oxley Island. It's remote, only accessible by boat, and with there being a good chance of crocodiles, he's dreading it.

Tully, on the other hand, can't wait.

With a boat licence, his dad's boat, and two days alone with Jeremiah—and with thunderstorms likely—to Tully, it's another perfect adventure.

But their plans go awry when Jeremiah's research gets far too close for comfort. Thirty years ago, the day his life was touched by lightning, he was changed forever.

It's about to change again, only this time he's determined to set things right.
