Heaven Hope is an orphan who escaped from her foster home and hitchhiking across the country. Sheriff Kevin Hunter watches over the citizens of Mapiya - an unremarkable, Minnesotan suburb. Motega and Alina work on a science experiment under the watchful eye of the FBI. On December 3rd, 2012 half of Mapiya disappears. There are no survivors. There is no explosion, no clue left behind as to what happened just a wasteland as if the town had been wiped out by a small nuclear disaster.
The major focus of the journal is publishing important original scientific research and research reviews, but Science also publishes science-related news, opinions on science policy and other matters of interest to scientists and others who are concerned with the wide implications of science and technology. Unlike most scientific journals, which focus on a specific field, Science and its rival Nature cover the full range of scientific disciplines.
