In a Los Angeles long ago abandoned to the elements and left to decay, the people who still live there face a battle to survive against the elements and the wild animals who also make it their home. In this ruined city Jesus Contreras has had enough and wants to make a difference--to change the future of the city he calls home. To do so, he must seek out those who rule them. With a band of like-minded followers, he begins a journey into the unknown which will ultimately uncover the truth of their existence and challenge them beyond all the obstacles they have previously faced.
