A freak electro-magnetic pulse leaves 17-year-old Bo and six other
teenagers trapped inside a building in the British seaside resort of
Blackpool, desperately trying to work out what just happened, why they
can’t get out, and how to survive the weirdest weekend of their
lives.
Dealing with each other’s egos and issues is nothing compared to the
fallout unleashed by the solar event, because hidden beneath the building
they discover it has activated a powerful energy device called blackloop.
As blackloop starts affecting everyone and everything in its vicinity, can
Bo, who’s still grieving the loss of her mum, summon the courage to
confront her fears, realise she’s falling in love, and make a move on
Karim before it’s too late?
