The climate has changed. Pollution has sterilized the human race. Few stragglers remain. From the top of the tallest skyscraper in Denver, Colorado, a lonely girl named Juno watches the sun and sand torment the Rocky Mountains day in and day out. She wonders why she was abandoned so suddenly, wonders if she will ever see her mother again, and wonders why, on her thirteenth birthday, a mysteriously scarred woman has just shown up to kidnap her. But there's no time to explain. Instead the woman makes three things painfully clear: Juno is being hunted, their only hope at safety is on the opposite side of the Rockies, and that this journey will be the hardest thing either of them has ever done. As the resentful duo races across an unpredictable environment, Juno will also have to grapple with unpredictable changes of her own. She'll stumble upon what mankind left behind, and learn why things ended up the way they are. Then, once Juno discovers how important she truly is, she'll be forced to decide just who she can trust, and who she'll have to leave behind... Mad Max meets The Road and An Inconvenient Truth in this epic climate fiction adventure!
