Mark Taylor spent his entire life prepping his family for every imaginable disaster scenario. Then he went and died of cancer.
His teenage son Lukas is bitter that his dad spent all the family money and social
equity on a day that never came. But more than that, he's bitter because his
father died. Now growing up in a remote part of Arizona with his mom, Lukas
can't wait to graduate high school and leave Skull Valley behind for good.
He is working the final week of a local summer camp in an effort to squirrel away
more money for his eventual escape, when the power goes out.
All modern electronics go dark and all communications with the outside world
are cut off. The remote town of Skull Valley begins to self-destruct as various
adults jockey for power and a returning celebrity survivalist adds to the
drama. It turns out, no one is better equipped to save the isolated community
than seventeen-year-old Lukas Taylor. After all, he has the skills and the
supplies. Now he just needs to figure out who he can trust, before it's too late.
