Publisher's Synopsis
2008 marked a major change in the political direction of her country. 2012 was a year of increased dissention and by 2016, mob protests, crime and angry hate abounded. Everything, it seemed, made life even more difficult for a hardworking single mother of two. Most people, including Caryn, focused on just living their lives under the ever increasing government regulations, the recession's high unemployment and later, the widespread part time under-employment. Coupon clipping and stretching the food budget combined with days of worry and fear of not receiving that next paycheck became the norm. Eventually, the people's growing anger divided the country and forced a radical change in the government. A new direction was about to dawn. But, was it a good one or would it be a disaster? The new inexperienced administration was hardline and forceful. Their political upheaval finally exploded into a world where allies became enemies who rattled their sabers positioning themselves to advance their own agendas. Then, it finally happened; WAR! Caryn's plans for a better life and future for her daughters vaporized in a matter of days. It was total chaos but she would not give up. "We'll find a new home," she told her daughters. And off they went searching, walking and trying to stay alive. None of them knew there was a place where things of reality and thoughts of fantasy were one and the same but, would they find it, could they even get there without dying on the way? Strange things happen when the world goes mad with war.
