Fragment - Nell Duckworth & Geoffrey Binswanger, Bk 1 - Audio CD - Unabridged Author:Warren Fahy, Robin Atkin Downes (Narrator) Scientists have made a startling discovery: a fragment of a lost continent, an island with an ecosystem unlike any they've seen before . . . an ecosystem that could topple ours like a house of cards. The time is now. The place is the Trident, a long-range research vessel hired by the reality TV show Sealife. Aboard is a cast of ambitio... more »us young scientists. With a director dying for drama, tiny Henders Island might be just what the show needs. Until the first scientist sets foot on Henders - and the ultimate test of survival begins . . .
