After the recent-and unexpected-news of his girlfriend's pregnancy, eighteen-year-old, Vee, has no other choice than to move past the conflict he and his girlfriend, Blue, faced prior to his hiatus and fly back to the small coal town which he's been desperately trying to put in his rear view ever since a terrible accident changed his life forever. The town is Loganson, West Virginia, and for awhile, it was a place Vee commonly referred to as home. Now, Vee believes the town is one natural disaster away from being a ghost town. Times have drastically changed outside the mountains that surround Loganson. The world moved on. Loganson, being a town which depended on the mining of coal, had not only fallen victim to economic collapse, but also to the harsh scrutiny by outsiders which left the decent people of a once thriving town trapped in a miserable state well-beyond repair.
Despite all of his grievances with Loganson, Vee, who has been crashing at his recently divorced mother's house in northern California, believes that fatherhood is maybe the best thing going for him. For Vee, raising a child may be what he needs to jump-start his life after a summer of rehabilitation. However, Vee is aware that Loganson brought out the very worst in him. Like many in Loganson, Vee has his own demons and ever since the accident, he's been a puppet to them. But not for long.
With an optimistic outlook on life, Vee will soon find himself in the thick of controversy after Loganson is undeservedly thrust onto the world's stage by a bizarre phenomenon in the sky which will either restore people's faith in humanity or leave it crumbling in the dust of time.
