Aisha is a thirteen-year-old refugee living in London. Happy for
the first time since leaving her war-torn home, she is devastated
when her foster mother announces that a new family has been found
for her and she will be moving on. Feeling rejected and abandoned,
Aisha packs her bags and runs away, seeking shelter in the nearby
woods. Meanwhile, a few doors down, twelve-year-old Zak is trying
to cope with his parents' divorce. Living in a near-building site
while the new house is being refurbished, he feels unsettled and
alone. Discovering a piece of rubble with the original builder's
signature set into it, he starts researching the history behind his
home - and in doing so finds a connection with a young soldier from
the past, which leads him to an old air-raid shelter in the same
woods. Both children, previously unknown to each other, meet in the
heart of the ancient city woodland as they come into the orbit of
Elder, a strange homeless woman who lives amongst the trees - and,
as helicopters hover overhead and newspapers fill with pictures of
the two lost children, unexpected bonds are formed and lives
changed forever . . .
