October 2020, and the world is in the grip of the coronavirus pandemic. On the Greek island of Agrion, forest fires are raging, tourists are scarce, and restaurants are closing.
Life on the streets is tough for street cats, Silva, Theo and Lila. The three tabbies are hungry, very hungry, and under threat from perils known and unknown. They dream of ESCAPE.
Ener young Jack, who has travelled to Agrion with his cousins as a legal bubble. Jack forms a special bond with Theo and is determined to rescue him and his sisters. But how?
