WHAT IF ALL OF TODAY'S TECHNOLOGY SUDDENLY DISAPPEARED?
Tim is a modern young man living a modern life in the highly industrialized northeastern United States. In a world of convenience and instant gratification, he surfs the 'Net, talks and texts on his phone, and enjoys all of the digital entertainment available. He has a girlfriend, Emily, who recently moved to Chicago to pursue an impossible-to-refuse professional opportunity. And although they miss each other tremendously, at least they can stay in touch through the network of today's technology.
Then everything changes.
Following a masterfully executed cyberattack by one of the US's most persistent foes, the overly tech-dependent Northeast is literally rendered powerless. There are no lights, no computers, no wifi networks...nothing. The ensuing and inevitable panic leads to the unraveling of civilized behavior, plunging millions into a state of pure chaos.
Caught in the heart of the madness, Tim quickly realizes what he must do. He has to leave Jersey and get to Emily, who awaits his arrival in the still-powered Chicago metro area. There's just one problem. How can he get there without any technological advantages, and in a society that's been forced to revert to an age when only the strongest—and most ruthless—survive?
