One day Quinn makes a fateful decision with a disastrous effect, and it forces he and his wife and son along with a friend to flee the confines of The City in search of a different life. Something better. But first they need to elude the World Order Security Police who are dispatched to track them down with orders to shoot to kill. Will they make? Read their inspiring story and find out.
