Description
Signy and her six year old son Jed are struggling to stay together in a world that's increasingly difficult. But when the technology that runs their life stops working, they're forced to confront the reality of their situation. As the city descends into chaos, with soldiers on the streets and people going missing, Signy must do whatever it takes to protect her son. A shocking incident sets them on the run, desperate to flee London for a safer haven in the countryside. But as they leave behind the familiar world of smart homes and automated everything, they're unaware of what dangers lie ahead. With no idea how long they can survive, Signy will stop at nothing to keep her son safe. As the world around them falls apart, one thing is clear: survival is just a matter of time.
