The book features a kidnapping by an “evil uncle” who is motivated by a decidedly unrequited love that is stalkerish. The child who is kidnapped cares for this uncle - I felt unsettled by this relationship and it did not feel like appropriate modeling. Children join a secret police unit. There is a future vision of parents carrying a coffin for a baby who the mom is currently pregnant with, and this is discussed in detail.
