Publisher's Synopsis
Phoenix is thrust into a world she never believed existed when the United States is invaded. Her family flees to the woods where they find that a group knew this was coming and prepared for the end of the world as we know it. That doesn't mean forces aren't out to get them, it just means they won't starve. Surviving on the other hand, might be harder than it seems.
We all have a vision of what the world is supposed to be. We have that same vision of our country all the way down to our individual communities. We even have a vision of what our family is. But the reality is we know nothing. That might seem a little harsh, but it's true. We only know what we see or research. We only know what we're taught. Some might reach beyond what they're supposed to know, but still, we can't figure it out until we're put to the test. When all is peaceful and right in the world, we go about our days without a thought of what tomorrow might be like. Sure, we dream of the future. We dream of getting older, of getting our driver's license, or our first kiss. We dream of having children, or traveling the world. We have a vision in our head of what we see as our own kind of utopia. But our vision isn't the same as the person next to us. So who's vision will come true? Is it truly the meek who will inherit the earth, or is it the strong? Is strength brutal force, or a whisper in the ear? How are we supposed to ever learn these answers if they aren't taught to us.
