A strange disease has taken over the world, and Evangeline is the last of her family still alive. As she travels across unknown land on a mission from her mother to keep a Bible safe, she meets friends who encourage her along the journey, along with foes who try to stop her.

All 16 year old Evangeline knows is that she has always lived in the small house near the Weeping Woods with her mother, father, and sister. But one day while exploring with her sister, September, she finds something that may change her life forever.
