Overview
Synopsis
In the middle of an apocalyptic, forgotten desert, Allyson and Bill take on the knowns--and unknowns--of futuristic survival. With their partners dead in a violent ambush, they are wounded and alone in an abandoned, rural grocery store with just a crackling radio and love for each other to keep them alive.
“Ultimately, we know deeply that the other side of every fear is a freedom.”
~Marilyn Ferguson
