Although Maine has convulsed with secession mania - a mania that had simultaneously spread across other states - Jess and Storey figure it's a fight reserved for legislators. But after two weeks hunting moose off the grid, the men reach a small town and are shocked to find a bridge blown apart, buildings burned to the ground, and bombed-out cars abandoned on the road. The men set their sights on finding their way home - dodging men who are armed as they seek a path to safety. And then, a startling discovery, a child in the cabin of a boat, drastically alters their path and the stakes of their escape.
