With not enough room, not enough food, and not enough air, life inside the shelter is filthy, physically draining, and emotionally fraught. In the middle of the night in late October, when the unthinkable happens, those same neighbors force their way into the shelter before Scott's dad can shut the door. As the neighbors scoff, he builds a bomb shelter to hold his family and stocks it with just enough supplies to keep the four of them alive for two critical weeks.

But Scott's dad is the only one in the neighborhood who actually prepares for the worst. In the summer of 1962, the possibility of nuclear war is all anyone talks about. What if the bomb had actually been dropped? What if your family was the only one with a shelter?
