Now, with the country fighting to rebuild and survive, the defunct government is trying to seize control through any means, including the sacrifice of its military. As more people arrive to the small town near where Mia and Andrew live, chaos begins as they are forced to survive one of the worst winters in history. Mia and Andrew find themselves isolated from their friends, and from help. Faced with a corrupt government, the country's remaining survivors must come together, against fresh injustices and fight for the life they'd once enjoyed so easily. Will Mia's offer of peace be enough? Or will the country fall into chaos and destruction, destroying any hope of peace?
