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.
How far would you go to find your way home?

Author
Brogen Murphy
After graduating with a degree in Zoology from the University of Cambridge, Brogen Murphy set about trying to figure out how best to save the world. They tried ecology field work, carbon offsetting, and a brief stint in climate activism, before spending fifteen years promoting clean technologies to help build a low-carbon future. They live with their wife by the sea in Suffolk, and when not writing they can be found in the forest looking (down) for mushrooms or (up) for birds—and therefore often tripping over. Wildlands is their debut novel.
