Elita Rosenhowe hasn't left her room in ages, literally. Two years ago the apocalypse left New York in shambles and Elita just mustered the courage to leave NYC behind for good and find the nearest refugee camp. Along the way she will accidentally bring a boy back to life, be chased by the US government and captured by a gang of thieves all in the attempt to reach safety; and if she's lucky her past won't come back to haunt her.
