In the abandoned town, the children have established a new home and organised a life for themselves. As they prepare for a trip to other cities in an attempt to determine the extent of the phenomenon that saw everyone else vanish, they encounter and learn to deal with the problems of an existence without adults. Until one day a tall, knife-wielding figure appears, and their dream of finding someone else suddenly turns into a nightmare…

The story continues to unfold and...OMG...wait until you see the Master of Knives!  And a few more secrets are revealed about our Alone kids. But -BUT- if you do not go "awwww" at the final page you are emotionally dead. THIS is good story-telling!
