Publisher's Synopsis
The population of the Unites States is on edge. Most people are facing financial troubles and many do not see any way things will get better for them in future. Many are frustrated and angry at their personal situation and at the world in general. Tensions are high across the nation and it takes little to spark big trouble. Racially motivated riots erupt in many cities across the nation. Instead of things getting gradually better they instead just get worse. When police alone can not seem to keep the peace then National Guard units are deployed in many cities. This action just seems to escalate the situation to another level. Many people can see the writing on the wall and know that very bad times are coming and this is a story of two such people. From very different walks of life they each do what they can personally to survive what they believe is likely to be even worse things to come. They both know that preparation is the key to survival if things do get as bad as they think they might. Though a story of a frightful future for this once great nation, it is also a story of hope.
