With nowhere to go, and the alien menace closing in on the farm, Amber and John flee to the coast, with the intention of embarking on a voyage across the Atlantic to the west coast of America in the hope of finding the only other known survivors. The only mode of transport available to them however is a large oil tanker, The Nostrum, which was in the process of leaving port to deliver its cargo of crude oil, when the cataclysm struck.Amber and John manage to board the tanker, but they soon discover however that they are not travelling alone, and the seemingly impossible voyage quickly turns into a journey from hell, which has virtually no chance of succeeding....This is the second book in the Vaporized series.
