Aina and Whitney have been confined to an island for twelve years for a crime they committed. They cannot move far from their cottage because they have to take a pill every eight hours to survive the toxic spores around them. They were told that they would be on parole after twelve years, and this is now but nobody comes to fetch them. Also, now, a sheep appears on their land. Aina starts having doubts about Whitney that explored the island. Is it really an island ? Did he lie ? Does he know where their son is ? When a young man and her daughter arrive at their cottage, it's Whitney's turn to have doubts. Is this man saying the truth ? Are his maps accurate ? This dystopian thriller will not end well. A story about trust, loyalty, and survival. Cruel and chilling.
