When seventeen-year-old Zara escaped her father's backwoods survivalist compound five years ago, she traded crossbows and skinning for electricity and video games. She prefers not to think about the tragedy that ended her time there. However, she doesn't have a choice. When a malware attack on our country's electrical grids cuts off the entire nation's power, Zara is forced to call upon those skills she thought she'd never use again. In order to survive, she must lead a growing group of friends and followers on an epic journey across a crumbling country back to her father's compound, where their only hope for salvation lies. Yet is salvation worth it if it leads to the dark secrets of her family and her past bubbling back to the surface?
