The opening of "Abandoned" introduces readers to the settlers seven months after their unexpected arrival on Lincoln Island. They discover a bullet found inside a rodent, leading to a captivating discussion about the possibility of other humans being on the island. Intrigued and anxious, they decide to build a canoe for exploration. Concurrently, a turtle they try to capture mysteriously disappears, further deepening the mystery surrounding the island’s past.
