Da Peggy finder et par støvler i skoven og indleder en eftersøgning efter deres ejer, begynder hun langsomt at opklare de mystiske hændelser, der førte hende ud i skovens ensomme indre.Peggy bliver ikke set før 9 år efter flugten, hvor hun står overfor et svært valg. Skal hun fortælle sin mor og resten af civilisationen, hvad der lå til grunde for hendes flugt, og den hemmelighed, hun har båret på lige siden?“En triumf. Fuller opbygger mesterligt plottet i denne voksenthriller af et eventyr, fuld af antydninger, spørgsmål og spænding." The Times.
