One Season

About midway through the 21st century, the tilt of the earth's axis started to shift drastically and the seasons began to change. Most of the world quickly became completely uninhabitable in the new harsh, unforgiving climate. This global event, known as “The Shift”, nearly wiped out the human race.

Anne and Hutch have escaped the confines of the Tyson Estate with plans to live out in the harsh conditions of The Elements where it is always winter. Instead, they accidentally discover an entire society of people living underground. Dwellers, as they call themselves, enjoy a peaceful existence away from the Estates and out of The Elements in a world called Sub Terra. There are dozens of families living in homes they call Dwellings. They live in what once was the New York City subway system. They exist as people did before The Shift.

Thrust from her home out in The Elements, having escaped from the labs of The Tyson Estates and now free from the horrors of Sub Terra, Annie with Hutch and their infant daughter, Eden, now find themselves in a world they never knew existed, Atlantica. An underwater civilization, Atlantica was built by seven friends who believed Calvin Tyson’s theory of extreme climate changes due to a drastic shift of the Earth’s axis. It was to be a temporary base of operations until scientists could find a way for their people to survive out in the harsh ruins of the Earth after The Shift.
