Earth is on the verge of a magnetic shift... A massive solar flare destroys power grids and communication networks all over the globe and triggers a sudden change in Earth's magnetic field. This causes the magnetic poles of the planet to migrate. Soon, sizeable portions of Earth become uninhabitable as the unstable poles create an ever-increasing scene of destruction and radiation. A family separated: As Laurie struggles to survive, she worries about her two boys and wonders if she will ever reunite with them. Can Josh find his way home as he wrestles with his past demons? And stranded in a remote African village, can Brendan adapt and accept the new direction his life is taking? Worlds apart, they all fight to navigate in a changed landscape where long-distance communication is next to impossible and modern methods of transportation no longer exist. Each must answer the question: How do you steer your life when north and south are radically shifting?
