A small group of childhood friends, saying farewell and congratulations, are suddenly thrown into the midst of a war the country could not predict. Trapped and unable to flee to safety, they are ultimately forced to hide out deep in the forests of the Adirondack Mountains. There they must fight their enemies, both invading forces and other Americans, in order to survive. Their goal is simple, yet nearly impossible; make it out alive and escape the first war since the Civil War to be fought on native soil.
