America in 2084 is managed primarily as three districts. The creation of the districts was part of a national compromise to reorder society after the financial system could no longer support the federal debt. The novel follows characters on both sides of the conflict, similar to The Killer Angels and A Game of Thrones, to honestly share the contrasting motivations, hopes, and fears which is almost impossible to find today from any one source.

The places in this book are shunned, abandoned, and forgotten. They do not exist, and yet here you will find the stories of people who have gone and survived to tell their tales. These are the postcards from the void, frightful evidence of places that should not be, and yet exist in our nightmares. Should you dare to venture into these blighted places, remember: Don't talk to strangers, don't stray far from home, and never, ever go in alone.
