Deze serie volgt een jonge protagonist die er alleen voor staat in een post-apocalyptische wereld na een onverwachte wereldwijde 'Opname'. Ze gaat op zoek naar haar vermiste ouders, terwijl ze navigeert door een nieuwe realiteit vol gevaar en onzekerheid. Het is een meeslepend verhaal over opgroeien, zelfontdekking en het vinden van hoop te midden van een onvoorstelbare ramp.
Sixteen-year-old Vivian Apple is skeptical about the anticipated 'Rapture' and hopes to reunite with her evangelical parents. However, after the event, she returns home only to find them missing.
Seventeen-year-old Vivian Apple has just travelled across the country, fended off roving bands of indoctrinated teenagers, re-evaluated everything she ever thought was true, and uncovered the dark secrets about the recent so-called 'Rapture' and the Church of America. And now, she must rescue her maybe-boyfriend Peter from the Church before the world is (supposedly) due to end, which is in less than three months. It's been a busy apocalypse so far. Stranded in a city on the verge of complete panic, and faced with a society in an ever-increasing state of breakdown, Vivian and her friend Harp don't even know where to begin looking for Peter. But then a tip leads them to Los Angeles, and the somewhat unlikely location of the Chateau Marmont hotel. Vivian must save the day - or she'll lose everything worth living for a second time.
