In a post-nuclear America where a constitutional amendment forbids any community from growing larger than a thousand people, young Len Colter becomes obsessed with legends of Bartorstown, a hidden settlement where scientists are rumored to have preserved forbidden technology. His dangerous quest forces him to confront the tension between the safety of agrarian simplicity and humanity's irrepressible drive toward knowledge and progress.
