As a cloud of mystery surrounds the sudden collapse of society in a not-too-distant future, sisters Nell and Eva find themselves shuttered in their home, surrounded by nothing but miles of dense forest in the Pacific Northwest. Isolated from the world around them, the sisters must fend for themselves, using the supplies and food reserves they have before turning to the forest to discover what the earth will provide. They are faced with a world where rumor is the only guide, trust is a scarce commodity, gas is king and loneliness is excruciating. And yet, somehow, miraculously love still grows.
