A riveting middle grade survival story set in a utopian future where two sisters accidentally get lost in a forbidden wilderness. Twenty-five years into the future, no human has set foot in the Wildlands--a vast area in Britain where formerly extinct animals roam free. The only exception is a high-speed train line between London and Glasgow that crosses right through the heart of the project.
Thirteen-year-old Astrid and her little sister, Indie, are onboard when their train slows to a brief, unexpected stop . . . and they find themselves accidentally left behind. Stranded in this place of astonishing natural wonders and terrible dangers, they have only a rucksack, a phone without a signal--and each other. As every wrong turn takes them deeper into the Wildlands, they must use all their ingenuity and determination to survive.
