Summary Twelve-year-old Petrel lives on an ancient icebreaker that has been following the same course for three hundred years. The ship's crew has three warring tribes, the Cooks, the Officers and the Engineers. Petrel has no tribe and lives in the dark corners of the ship, trusting no one, speaking to no one except two large grey rats, Mister Smoke and Missus Slink. One day, a boy is discovered, frozen on an iceberg, and brought onto the ship. The tribes don't trust him Petrel hides him away in the forgotten corners of the ship. What she doesn't know is that for the last three hundred years, the ship has been guarding a secret. A secret that could change the world. A secret that the boy has been sent to destroy, along with the ship and everyone on it.
