A group of survivors managed to escape from the chaos-ridden cities. Just what awaits Victor and the people who trusted him in a world in which there is no law left? Where the one who is stronger and better armed is always considered right. Where raids by alien space fighters on the last centers of human civilization have become commonplace, and food has to be obtained at the risk of life.

And if only boarding school teenagers are at hand, then they are the ones who are destined to become the force before which aggressive neighbors will bow. But the internecine conflicts of people pale against the background of the fact that the alien invaders, who have achieved the destruction of all centers of organized resistance, are beginning the second stage of the invasion.
