Book details
Amy Plum - Author
A survival mystery with a major change in Juneau’s understanding of reality. Its strongest offer is the contrast between a secluded upbringing and a modern world she was taught did not exist.
World War III has left the world ravaged by nuclear radiation. A lucky few escaped to the Alaskan wilderness. They've survived for the last thirty years by living off the land. When Juneau returns from a hunting trip to discover that everyone in her clan has vanished, she sets off to find them. Leaving the boundaries of their land for the very first time, she learns something horrifying: There never was a war. Cities were never destroyed. The world is intact. Everything was a lie. Searching for fellow survivors of World War III, a girl from a remote Alaskan village discovers the war never actually happened and that she must now adapt to a strange and dangerous modern world. The plot contains profanity.
