Drifter Will is left for dead in the apocalyptic desert badlands and found by farm-girl Jess who takes him back to her farm.
Agreeing to help her get medication for her dying friend, Will travels with her to a fairground like trade post. Their relationship blossoms fast, but during an attack on the market, Will is kidnapped by marauders.
Will finds himself on a battle ready road-train named The Juggernaut, commanded by Hayden, an ex-military colonel with ambitions to lead a civil war. Meanwhile one of Hayden’s associates has followed Jess back to her farm. Will witnesses the Juggernaut in action, storming another truck like a pirate ship on the highway, showing no mercy.
Will escapes dramatically with Hayden's prized possession, a military buggy known as the Hammertail. Fleeing back to Jess, Will returns only to realize he’s leading the bad guys right to her door.
