SYNOPSIS:  “Hig, bereaved and traumatised in the new wildness of post-apocalyptic America, has three things to live for – his dog, Jasper, his aggressive but resourceful fellow-survivor, Bangley, and his beloved Cessna aeroplane.  Thinks to the plane, he has a lifeline: he can search for food, and keep watch for feral fellow-outlaws.  The problem is that not much fuel is left.

But Hig’s loneliness is becoming unbearable.  When he picks up a message from another pilot, his longing to find who else is still alive becomes irresistible, although he won’t have enough fuel to get back. …”
