Multiple combat deployments have taken their toll on Mike's mind and body and he is medically discharged by the army. Devastated, he retreats away from society to fight his mental demons. When catastrophe strikes the world and civilization teeters on the brink of destruction, the sanctuary Mike has constructed will protect him. The problem is that he must travel over 100 miles on foot and alone to get there. Only his training and experience can guide him to safety and possible redemption as he faces unchecked violence and destruction along the way. This is a gritty, realistic and no-holds barred account of the life of a combat soldier intertwined with a 'What If' post-apocalyptic tale of global war and the aftermath. It is bloody, frightening and violent and the scenario not only plausible but entirely possible.
