Description

"Tonight they'll share their darkest secrets, but tomorrow, there is no escape...An earthquake deep in the ocean is sending a tsunami towards the Cornish coast with no early warning and little time for escape. With its poor infrastructure and isolation, many people won't get away in time. As the terrifying reality of this hits home, one young woman posts a message on Facebook. `With nowhere to run to, I'm heading to my favourite beach to watch the sunset, who wants to join me?' A small group of people head towards the beach, each with their own stories and their own secrets and as they come together in the dying light of the Cornish sunset, they will discover something much more powerful than they thought possible. But there is no escaping the dawn, the wave is coming.."--Publisher.
