No Man's Land

Off the coast of mainland Port Pascua there's the isolated island of Winkle Neck, a rural beach home to feral children, strange creatures, and a small group of the undead known as the prophets. The children devour a drug made from the algae on the rocks and spend their time with a man who has been trying to kill himself but can't, a boy who can peel off his skin, and a girl who has no explanation of where she comes from or why she has no feeling of remorse for the brutal things she does. For years, very few humans have ever lived out there but as the people from the mainland start moving on to it and clear cutting to make room for homes, the beach and its bizarre inhabitants believe it's their responsibility to protect what they love. A story about chaos and safety, survival and war, No Man's Land follows the battle between two groups, the real versus the inexplicable, that both lay claim to an island that none of them can understand and try to find their place in an indifferent world.
