Most of the major cities in the nation have been totally destroyed by riots. Millions upon millions of refugees flee population centers in every direction, desperate to find some safe haven before the first snows of winter. Organized relief efforts are breaking down due to lack of resources, leaving relief workers stranded wherever they’ve ended up, in the same plight as the refugees around them.
Trevor Smith and his cousin Lewis Halsson have lost most of what they’d prepared to weather the disaster, including the shelter they built, and are making for the mountains. There they’ll test their skills and ingenuity against far harsher conditions than they’d face in the valley below.
Meanwhile their friend Matt Larson and his family, left behind in the small town of Aspen Hill, face their own worries. Thanks to Ferris and his soldiers the town’s insufficient food supplies are being shared out to the nearby refugee camp, threatening to leave everyone starving before winter even begins. The gang operating out of the refugee camp is also causing trouble, harboring a deep bitterness for the town that wouldn’t let them in.
And over all other worries looms the approaching winter that few seem ready for. Those fortunate to survive it must then worry about planting crops and lasting until harvest, with potentially greater problems looming on the horizon.
