Sixteen-year-old Issy loves the sea, preferring it to dry land. Determined to become a marine biologist, she's driven by the desire to fulfill her ambition to work in an aquatic environment. Seventeen-year-old Dan is under pressure to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a doctor. Dan harbours secret ambitions to work as an actor: he dreams of escaping his quarrelling family to flee to the bright lights of the theatre. When the two teenagers are thrown together on an unexpected holiday on the beautiful island of Crete, neither are impressed. Then an unexpected day trip out takes a dangerous turn, and the two get stranded on a seemingly deserted island. Exploring the island, they find a hidden building called The Star Institute. What they discover on the island will push the limits of their beliefs and understanding of the world... but will it bring them closer together? Julia Sutton's THE STAR CONSPIRACY is a compelling story of family drama, secrets and adventure.
