What if it were your reality? It is the reality for Kerryl Shaw. Aged just seventeen, she lives with her family on an idyllic and remote farm in the heart of the Pennine Mountains.
But then comes the devastating plague. But wouldn't the Shaw family be safe in their farm? Sadly, even they family succumb to the plague, one-by-one until only Kerry is left.
She knows that it is only a matter of time until she, too, falls victim to the mystery plague that has destroyed humanity.
So she decides to write a diary to a notional person she has dubbed Adam.
As all services start to breakdown the loneliness of her dreadful situation begins to weigh very heavily on her and her mind begins to crack.
She hears her name being called in the darkness of the night, animals attack her, she visits town and is assaulted, strangers outside the farm suddenly vanish and things appear and disappear. And to her, Adam becomes a real, rather than an imaginary person.
She finds text messages on her phone. But how can this be, when there is, apparently, nobody left to text her?
The she gets an invitation to meet a mystery person. Should she? What would happen if she did? But then again, what would happen if she didn't?
