The Rising Tide
is the second book in Helen Brain’s Fiery Spiral trilogy, a
dystopian fantasy series for young adult readers. It continues the
saga of teenager Ebba den Eeden, who has spent her life in a bunker
deep within Cape Town’s Table Mountain. She, and the other
inhabitants of the bunker, have grown up believing the world
“above” was left uninhabitable due to nuclear war.
When Ebba is suddenly released from the bunker, she discovers that
everything she knew—about the world above and her own life—was
wrong. Now shouldering an immense responsibility, Ebba must use her
power to stop a second apocalypse. She must listen to her
instincts, even if it means destroying the things she holds most
dear. Who can she trust to help stop the second “Calamity,” now
just days away? Who will betray her? In The Rising Tide Ebba will discover
the impossible decisions – and great sacrifice – that sometimes
come with destiny.
