When Luke, a tech-nerd, arrives for his first day at Bremin High all appears to be tiresomely ordinary, but what he doesn’t know is that Bremin is located at the convergence of magical ley lines and that someone has been awaiting his arrival to put together a new gang of Nowhere Boys. Three have already been identified: Heath, the school’s ‘bad boy’, is Fire; high achiever and track athlete Niyanta is Earth; and musical theatre geek Jesse is Air. Unbeknown to him Luke is the fourth element –Water. Coinciding with Luke’s arrival, people start disappearing, until one morning Luke, Heath, Niyanta and Jesse – discover they are the last four people in the universe, and they have been thrust together into a terrifying empty wasteland.
