Following a crippling EMP attack against the USA, and a long merciless journey, college student turned survivalist, Danny Walker, finally makes it to his secure, rural location. No sooner does Danny arrive than he is given another petrifying prophetic vision of the chaos still to come.

Another conflict with the malicious dictator will spell certain death for the remaining members of the compound.
