Lucy Jones is walking through the forest wearing her red anorak when a wolf leaps out and tells her: ‘I am your destiny, and you are my dinner’. Lucy assures him that she is not Red Riding Hood, but the wolf doesn’t believe her. He follows her all the way to London, where her granny and granddad live in a tower block.

The wolf decides to stay and pretend to be a dog and causes chaos on the estate in his desire to make sure everyone he meets ‘lives happily ever after’.
