Synopsis

Can a marriage endure a journey through a world destroyed by environmental disaster and societal breakdown?

It’s been twenty-five years since climate-related disasters led to an economic meltdown, a failed geoengineering attempt, and, in retaliation, a Blackout War where EM pulses destroyed electronic systems, taking out the power grid and most satellites. Though the worst has happened, a plan is in place to adapt to the changing climate and restore society. The plan, however, requires scientists, like George Reynolds, to trek across America’s ravaged landscape to collect vital information.

George on his second trek down the East Coast. This time he is accompanied by his second wife, Ruth, who nursed him back after the tragic murders of his first wife and twin daughters. The question is whether their marriage can survive being joined at the hip for over a year on this trek. Their mission and lives will be threatened by an EF4 tornado, flooding, wildfire, weeks of trekking through a heat dome with deadly temperatures, and by the greatest danger—the people they encounter on their journey.
