With Charles' fated arrival, the lives of his daughters is in upheaval. Torn between thinking him a madman-a victim of the current world, or their father-having come to rescue them, Lexi and Valerie are forced to decide upon what to do. With their security, their way of live, and their survival on the line, they decide that their father's dying words were not those of a rambling madman, but the wish and warning of a father. With the name Jason firmly engrained in their minds, a highway map of the United States with crude markings upon it, and hearts full of determination, they set out into the world to discover just what it was their father died trying to convey to them.
