Once in Florida, the pandemic reaches biblical proportions, and Drew watches as the world is plunged into chaos. He must now make the long journey home on foot, encountering others along the way— each with their own hidden addictions. Can Drew and the others overcome their vices to survive a disintegrating society to save their family, as well as humanity? Or will they simply succumb?
