Coming Soon

In the final hours of 2049, two sets of characters journey to San Francisco. From very different pasts and on entirely separate missions, the two pairs collide while the rest of the country prepares to ring in the new year.

For Deuce and Chew, it’s the trip they need to face the past and move forward.

For Charisma and Mulva, the path to San Francisco is about revenge. Righting a wrong. And justice.

Although many challenges that plagued the Terrible Twenties have been effectively dealt with through a combination of tech breakthroughs, transformative public policy, and crucial additions to the public education system, new issues surface for the next generations to confront. That starts with Deuce and Chew, and Charisma and Mulva.
