In post-apocalyptic London, Gwen Darling struggles to protect her siblings from the Marauders, led by Captain Hook. Aided by Pete, who defends a hidden troop of orphans, Gwen learns she and her mother may hold the key to saving the world. Elements of Barrie's famous work frame (at times awkwardly) this series-opener. A creatively constructed adventure tale of survival and family.
