Children of Zone - Parker Derek
In 1986 there was a nuclear disaster at Chernobyl, in what
was then the Soviet Union. The area, over two thousand
square kilometres, was evacuated and sealed, closed off
from the world by a massive wall. But 149 schoolkids are
left behind, forgotten. Over time, they learn how to survive,
and slowly they build a society for themselves despite
the dangers - radiation, wolves, and winter - of the Zone.
Twenty years after the Evacuation, a helicopter from the
other side of the Wall appears, with a mysterious woman at
the controls. That encounter sparks a chain of events which
takes one of the Children, the hunter Isaak, back to the past,
to the day of the Evacuation - and towards a confrontation
which threatens the future of the Zone itself.
