In 'House of the Rising Sun,' the fabric of modern life is ripped apart when a mysterious star renders all electronics inert, plunging the world into chaos. Seth Black's life is saved by this anomaly, but the relief is short-lived as he and his family face the stark reality of survival. Thomas Phillips, a screenwriter who penned a story eerily similar to the unfolding apocalypse, and Skylar Stover, an actress caught in the maelstrom, embark on a harrowing journey to unite with Seth's family. As civilization collapses, they confront the brutality of a society unhinged, striving to maintain their humanity amidst the ruins. But lurking in the shadows is Aiden Christopher, embodying the darkest impulses of a world without rules, on a devastating path that will intersect with the others' struggle for hope.
