London has been bombed by terrorists. The government has been wiped out, there is widespread power failure and throughout England riots have begun.

Maria saw the war planes fly over her home near London and watched in horror as the smoke rose from the direction of the city. Now she must make a hazardous journey to safety with her sister and a Christian friend they meet on the way.

For Maria, the journey is also inside herself, as she is forced to face issues that she has never had to consider before and begins to discover a side to life that she never knew existed.

A nail-biting drama for young adults.
