The medical community does not know what it is, how it spreads or how to cure it. What they do know is the virus spreads rapidly with a 100 percent mortality rate.
As the disease takes its toll on the adult population, the number of adolescent gang starts to grow causing more problems throughout the communities. Problems like burglary, arson, and various forms of assault including rape and murder become commonplace. As time goes by, the death toll continues to climb. The population of the world is decreasing fast. Who will survive and what will society looks like?
"It started as a dream but I have a lot of education that helps me to understand the science in this story. This story is based on how a family is affected by the breakdown of society due to a virus. Today we are experiencing an actual pandemic with COVID-19," Mitchell says. When asked what he wants readers to take away from this book, he answers, "How important family and friends can be during times of high stress and uncertainty."
