Now a single dad, just focused on getting his kid ready for school, the last thing on Jack's mind was fighting for survival. But then, out of nowhere, a storm hits.

As the storm rages, Jack realizes that this storm is unlike anything the country has ever seen. The aftermath reveals a world forever changed, presenting them with challenges they could never have anticipated. Together, they must face the worst to come, united by their determination and will to survive at all costs. It's do-or-die, and failure isn't in Jack Stride's vocabulary.
