They’ll protect what’s theirs - or die trying. The McDonald clan have learned their lessons the hard way these last months. Shane and Jodi finally realize they must keep their reunited family close and protect their own above all others to survive in this new post-apocalyptic reality. The repairs on the home are complete, solar panels installed, and the now operational pump means they won’t have to continue collecting rainwater for the foreseeable future. But it’s no longer just outsiders wreaking havoc on the small Georgia town, as unprepared townsfolk learn of their hard-earned stores - and threaten to take their prepper supplies by force. To stem the mayor’s confiscation plans and keep the angry hordes at bay, the McDonalds’ blind teenaged daughter spearheads a community garden project to teach the citizens how to survive the coming lean years. But word travels fast when there are too many hungry mouths to feed. And the gang that has long menaced the McDonalds comes looking to exact their pound of flesh. When loved ones get caught in the crossfire, Shane and company won’t hold back against an enemy that threatens to take everything they have left. Or kill those they hold dear.
