James is a Sioux teenager living on a rural reservation, when the America he knew and loved collapses in a financial meltdown. Soon hyper-inflation and unemployment take their toll on every aspect of the national economy. The Federal government falters, then the state and then the local. Transportation networks grid to a halt and store shelves go empty. Things turned even uglier when there is no power for long parts of the day... then forever. Police, doctors, and trash collectors just stopped showing up for work when their paychecks were delayed too often, or stop being honored by banks.

Once friendly neighbors turn bitter rivals as vital resources vanish.

James takes it upon himself to look after his family, his disabled father, his mother and younger siblings, struggling everyday to provide something for them to eat. Later he take up the mission of protecting them from roving gangs of bandits looking to take what little his family has, or even to capture anyone young and strong so they can sell them to the highest bidder. James teams up with the remaining members of the reservations and together they lookout for their own, but late one night his neighbor appears at the door, his farm has fallen to outlaws. Now an army of thugs outfitted with state of the art weapons sits within striking distance of the James' home and he must choose, drive the invaders back at any cost, or take what they can carry and run?

What happens next will change James' life forever.
