Spurred on by their hope of finding the city and a plentiful supply of food, Simon, Reynard and Cliff are headed into depths of their human-free world again. On their travels, however, they encounter Black Thistle Acres, a collective of their fellow animals who have control and live in semi-chaotic harmony under Jimmy, an experienced chief rooster from a long and noble line. It doesn’t take long for each member of the trio to settle into the community, but something isn’t quite right about their new allies, and the mystery of Black Thistle Acres begins to unravel feelings, truths and secrets from every side. The real question is, will they continue their mission to the city? Or will someone get left behind?
