Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A collaborative Young Adult novel by Bruce Coville and Jane Yolen written in 1998.Two teenagers, Jed and Marina, have little in common beside the fact that their parents have joined a cult that believes that the world is about to end on July 27, 2000. All the families in this cult (called The Believers) have made a camp at the top of a mountain to wait out the Apocalypse.There are, of course, problems. First, the apparent apocalypse is on Marina's birthday. The camp closed off after a certain number of people come in, leaving Believers who didn't get in to desperately protest outside the gates alongside non-Believer family members concerned about those who did make it in. And (of course) Jed and Marina are starting to fall in love.

Abusive Parents: Marina's mom becomes a lot worse to her kids after they get to the mountain. This seems to be a result of her getting caught up in the whole religious craze, and she gets better in the epilogue.

Anti-Villain: Reverend Beelson is portrayed in a rather sympathetic light. Jed is surprised to see, when he talks to him, that Beelson genuinely cares for all of his followers even if his methods are quite questionable.
