Astrid and Indie are stranded together and have only each other while trying to find their way home.
A future Britain contains a human-free Wildlands where wolves, lynx and bison roam, while a train line crosses the area.
The children have a rucksack and a phone without signal as they travel deeper into the Wildlands and try to get home.
The wilderness is described as containing both astonishing natural wonders and terrible dangers, including large wild animals.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: the book’s treatment of its main themes is not yet firm enough; some draft conclusions still depend on unresolved evidence.
Anything not established here remains open; it is not being treated as absent or safe.
