Sammy has been sick with a virus that has all but destroyed society as we know it. He awakes one morning to discover he is an orphan. His only living relative being his grandfather, who lives two hundred miles away in Wales. With no trains, buses or cars running how is he to get there? He packs essentials and, in a highly traumatised state, sets out on his bicycle, having to sleep in woods and fields and eat whatever food nature is able to provide. But soon that journey has to be made on foot. Meeting various characters on the way, he discovers that other people, far from offering him help, need help themselves. Young or old, everyone has their own needs and agendas which they try to embroil him in. Every chapter of the journey presents him with a hurdle he must overcome. Will one of those hurdles prove just too much? Will he reach his grandfather in Wales or will he fail?
