'In 2016, the American and European economies finally collapse, plunging the world into chaos. The Great Global Riot of 2016 stripped the nations of their humanity, leaving many people misplaced or killed. The world is no longer driven by money, but hunger, desolation and survival.
'Twenty years on, Alex Locke lives in the colony of Pena located in lower Tennessee with his mother and step sister. The remains of society is divided up into various colonies, spanning across former USA. The Govern, the remnants of the American Government now run and police the districts.
'When a rare homing pigeon flies into Pena with a note from the elusive Govern, the people prepare for the worst. The letter explains of a warehouse stocked full of food and supplies in Bakersfield, Kentucky. There is no proof it still exists, or if the letter is a hoax.
'In order to beat starvation and keep his family alive, Alex travels to the warehouse. With his childhood friend Kate and seven others in tow, they trek across Tennessee towards the warehouse encountering death, heartache and redemption.'
