When Lizzy is forced to move to the Adventist commune of Stillwater, she is sure the end times have begun. She's not wrong. As Covid-19 upends society, sixteen-year-old Lizzy is trapped between her passion for science and the conspiracy theories embraced by her Seventh-day Adventist father and Mennonite mother. But she isn't the only one in crisis. Her father, a nurse, is opposed to vaccines--the perfect excuse to relocate his injured, secretly drug-addicted wife and two children to a strict SDA commune in British Columbia's Okanagan Valley. Once at Stillwater, Lizzy struggles to curb her tongue and adapt to a rigid ideology without abandoning her education. But a new threat forces her to flee with her younger brother and reluctant mother to a place where old resentments and buried history will provoke a day of judgement for the whole family.
