Description
In 2020s California, social chaos and economic crises have created a world of danger. Water is scarce, and vagabonds roam the streets in search of survival. Fifteen-year-old Lauren lives with her preacher father and family in a gated community, sheltered from the outside world. However, she suffers from hyperempathy, which makes her extremely sensitive to others' emotions. As the community ignores the impending disasters, Lauren must find a way to protect herself and those she cares about. As Lauren fights for survival, something unexpected emerges: a new faith and a vision of human destiny.
