Five kids are on a sleepover in a restored wilderness project in Ireland. With them, three teachers and one Ranger: Lisa. She is twenty-six, longing to leave her job, out of her depth and soon to find herself mired in a nightmare.
Strange things have been happening at Lough Carrow, a vast rewilding project on the site of a former commercial peat-bog. Livestock mutilations. Rumors, myths from the neighboring villages. Strange, unidentifiable tracks. On the trek in to the sleepover site they sight animals that have not yet been introduced to the park—wolves, wolverines, things older. Things thought long extinct.
As they near the center of the wilding a boy realizes he's forgotten his meds. A teacher volunteers to take him back to the visitor center. Sure, what could go wrong?
That night the camp is attacked. A teacher is dragged away. Lisa's group is marooned in the wild. It is night, the four remaining kids are terrified, they need to get back to the ARK, but the wilderness seems to be playing with time and distance and something is out there. Something hungry and hunting . . .
