In a world where technology is the dominating force, Mark Thomas and his best friend Jacob Teal take matters into their own hands by attempting to eliminate technology for good. However, when a dead woman is found hanging from Mark's rooftop, Mark realizes that technology is far worse than he and Jacob had thought. It has the ability to brainwash those who read stories from a screen to become the characters that they've read about. Will Mother Nature be the solution to the technological mayhem? Only a tulip, a novel, and a ratty old cabin can tell.
