If ever there was a stark contrast to the fun of the retro scene with its rockabilly fun and gorgeous little homes on wheels, it would have to be preppers, stockpiling food, and waiting for the Apocalypse. It's not a scene that Georgie has ever had much to do with until her brother Jerry starts specializing in building Bug-Out vehicles and selling Get Out Of Dodge packs. Unfortunately, Jerry draws the attention of some of the more extreme members of the survivalist movement-and it's not only his expertise in building the ultimate bug-out vehicle that they want! They are seeking information that he's not ready to give, and very quickly he realizes that his usual charm isn't going to work with this crew. Georgie, struggling right now to read anyone's fortune, still manages to catch a glimpse of a dangerous time ahead for Jerry and Tammy, but by the time she gets word to them, it's all too late. Jerry has disappeared, communication has broken down, and his fate is in the hands of a couple of gypsy fortune-tellers: his great-grandma Rosa and his sister Georgie. The Crystal Ball Investigation Team sets off in hot pursuit, armed with a crystal ball that appears to go to sleep when it feels like it and only a vague sense of where Georgie's missing brother might be. Now if Jerry can just stay alive until they get there...
