I'm all cried out. I'm still alone. The sky is full of giant spinning black balls that kill anyone stupid enough to go outside. Now I sit in the car, staring out the window like a rat in a cage.
When the cataclysm strikes, twelve-year-old Megs is trapped in a hotel carpark in LA. Across the country, sixteen-year-old Josh is stuck in his home with his increasingly obsessive-compulsive father. Food and water and time are running out. Will Megs survive long enough to find her mother? Will Josh and his father survive each other?
