After the worst kind of tragedy, losing his wife and son in an accident. Justin Kase buys ten acres in remote southwest Oregon, intending to hide from the world while he nursed his wounds. Justin finds himself joining some survivors on the other side of the state near the small town of Nash City, Oregon after the U.S. was bombed by an unknown enemy. Justin and his small group of survivors manage to hold out, but when their supplies run low, they start looking for way to travel to Justin's home near Backstrap. The territory south of Backstrap has become the territory of the vicious Elkhiyda gang, who ruthlessly protect the area. As Justin picks up more straggling survivors, they make plans to move to Backstrap with fresh supplies, but he knows they're going to have to fight their way past the Elkhiyda to get to freedom. In this dark paranormal dystopian fantasy, the action is unending, the betrayal deep, and the fears are truly terrifying.
