Christian (Chris) Carter has never felt so alone. So defeated.
His real mother died when he was 16. His father remarried a younger woman and a few years later, his sister, Callie, was born. When Callie was 3, her mother ran off, and Chris's father remained single.
Christian, now 29, is all alone with his now 16 year old sister. His father left them alone and ran off with another woman. Chris's job was to make sure that he and his sister survive together. Times had never been harder. Chris lost his job and does not have enough money to pay the rent for the apartment he and his sister share.
Things are about to get worse.
The government collapsed and society is falling apart. Chris and Callie's hometown has erupted into chaos. People are breaking in to other people's houses. Guns are firing. Brother turning on brother for to steal supplies. And even bombs detonate. No one can be trusted. In the wake of the chaos, Callie suddenly vanished in the middle of the night. And there's no trace of where she's gone. But there's more to his sister's disappearance then meets the eye.
But when invaders from across the boarder come to raid what little remains, they give no mercy to the ones who stand in their way and they are armed with advanced technology. With Callie missing, Chris decides to set off on foot with his only friend, Jack, and encounters Olivia LeClair, a runaway woman in search of freedom and meaning.
This dystopian society is doomed. There must be a new world somewhere, right?
Some people are lucky and have the most perfect lives, but some of us are like Elizabeth "Liz" Meyers. She's been dealing with school, the lost of her mother, and her abusive dad too long.

But the day finally comes and she can leave her father. After a turn of events Liz finds herself moving in with the new kid in school that no one can stop talking about and his family.

But just as things seem to be going right someone from her past makes their way back into her life.
Liz soon realizes she will have to make a choice. Will she choose her past or her present? Whatever she chooses, it will change her life forever.
