The year is 2032.
AI runs your home. Drones deliver your groceries. Autonomous systems watch your every move.

America is faster, smarter, more connected than ever—and one second away from collapse.

Then it happens.
A high-altitude nuclear EMP shatters the grid.
Minutes later, the nukes fall.
The world doesn’t end. Just America as we knew it.

Sixteen-year-old Archer Callahan was raised by a Green Beret for a moment like this.

With his father presumed dead and the nation in ruins, Archer leads a group of military-brat Scouts

on a desperate journey to a survival cabin deep in the North Carolina mountains.

But the danger isn't just fallout and famine—it's people. Some broken, some brutal,

and some determined to finish what the bombs started.

After US is a coming-of-age survival epic shaped by the tactical realism of One Second After,

the wilderness grit of Hatchet, and the youth-led resistance of Red Dawn—

set in a near future where tech failed, war followed, and rebuilding must begin.
