Ann, a Massachusetts state trooper, loaded her duffle bag, extra ammunition, and supplies in the back of the Humvee. Camille, a middle-aged full-figured woman of African descent is riding shotgun. She carries a heavy heart. Her purpose on this trip is to inform her sister that her son was killed by a roving gang. William is sitting in the back seat next to Fred. He is a caregiver for his client Fred, a heavyset challenged man in his late seventies. William is desperately, almost neurotically, trying to seek medical help for Fred. Since the EMP strike, Fred has been without the proper medication for diabetes and high blood pressure.
