Všemi dary obdarovaná


Desetiletá Melanie žije spolu s dalšími dětmi na vojenské základně, kde se pod přísným dohledem vzdělává. Nadprůměrně inteligentní dívka miluje staré řecké báje a její spřízněnou duší je učitelka slečna Justineauová. Zato seržanta Parkse, který hlídá děti jako dráb, nesnáší. Stejně jako doktorku Caldwellovou. Ale bez nich to asi nejde, když je základna obklopena zpustošenou krajinou, kde stejně jako ve zbytku země vládnou hladovci — kanibalistická monstra, jež při honu za lidským masem nic nezastaví. Základna je však napadena a Melanii, slečně Justineauové, seržantu Parksovi, doktorce Caldwellové a vojínu Gallagherovi se podaří utéct. Společně se vydávají na cestu do Majáku, posledního místa v Británii, které se podařilo od nákazy zachránit. Jenže budou Melanii v Majáku chtít, když ji v blízkosti lidí popadá zoufalý hlad, jaký ještě nezažila?

Desetiletá Melanie žije spolu s dalšími dětmi ve vězení na vojenské základně, kde se pod přísným dohledem vzdělává. Nadprůměrně inteligentní dívka miluje staré řecké báje a za svou spřízněnou duši považuje zbožňovanou učitelku, slečnu Justineauovou. Zato nemilosrdného seržanta Parkse, který děti hlídá jako dráb, Melanie nesnáší. Stejně jako doktorku Caldwellovou, jež si občas nechá do laboratoře přivést některého z jejích spolužáků, kteří už se odtamtud nevrátí. Holčička si však nepamatuje, že by kdy poznala jiný svět, než žalář v základně obklopené zpustošenou krajinou, v níž stejně jako ve zbytku země vládnou hladovci ? kanibalská monstra, která při honu za lidským masem nic nezastaví. Když je základna napadena, podaří se Melanii, slečně učitelce, seržantu Parksovi, doktorce Caldwellové a vojínu Gallagherovi utéct. Společně se vydávají na cestu do Majáku, posledního místa v Británii, které se podařilo od nákazy uchránit.
