In the town of Nowhere everyone has a role. Those who protect the fence are at the top of the totem pole just below the mayor. Food and water is scarce therefore it is rationed to those who work. If you don't work you don't eat. Eighteen year-old Poppy has struggled to make ends meet in order to care for her family. When the mayor begins cutting the citizen's rations in order to encourage the town's people to capture a man with a bounty on his head, Poppy is forced to sacrifice herself to save those she loves. Once the man is safely return to the mayor alive, all rations will resume normally and the capturer will be reward with plenty of rations to supply them for the rest of their life. Only those who are insane would risk leaving the fence. Poppy may just fit into that category.
