The saga continues. Mark and Hannah, and their group of forty one, are just getting comfortable in their mountain hideaway. For six and a half years they'd scratched out a minimal existence in an old salt mine, waiting for the world to thaw. Now they've entered a new home and a brave new world. One of sunshine, fresh air, and new opportunities. But the gods of fate aren't going to make it easy on them. They are forced to evacuate their new home by a band of ruthless outlaws. They aren't ready to give it up, though. So they go to war... literally, and use guerilla tactics to take out the outlaws a few at a time. Along the way, there are other problems to deal with. One of their own commits an act so heinous he is put on trial. The group must decide whether to do something they'd never had to do before: banish someone they know well and love. On Buena Vista Drive, a massacre kills all but a handful of people. They're forced to leave everything behind, and are given refuge in the compound. Frank is seriously wounded in the battle, and despite Eva's assurances he'll recover, it didn't look good. It isn't all gloom and doom, though. Hannah and the girls still have fun at their guys' expense. Little Markie continues to grow and to see his new world in wide-eyed wonder. And new love blossoms.
