Lola is an action-packed mystery set in dystopian North America, in the year 3520. This sci-fi adventure begins when recovering alcoholic Lola Quinn and her little brother Jax find out that their father has gone missing - and he just might be a murderer. Lola has no choice but to return to the Central Hub where she can properly investigate the cryptic messages left behind by her father, only to be saddled with a new partner in the flamboyantly inexperienced Jess Kilgariff. When her brother is kidnapped and chaos begins to reign all around her, Lola must face her deepest fears and expose her darkest shame in order to overcome the obstacles that stand in her way. In the end, she is faced with a choice as to what is more important; trying to repair the shattered pieces of her past, or holding out for a better future?

LOCATIONS
Central City, 3520
A series of devastating earthquakes caused the majority of the United States, and the rest of the world, to be completely submerged in water. Somehow, the state of Michigan's lower peninsula was one of few masses of land to survive, and the smattering of people who survived found solace there, rebuilding the world from the ground up. Centuries later, when Central City has become one of very few booming meccas, our story begins...
NORTH

The Quinn Family Home Just another old over-repaired Dutch Colonial home in the tightly packed suburbia that is Northside.
Halbertson's Pawn Shop A dusty little matchbox of a pawn shop on the outside, a huge mechanical tech-nerd's dream on the inside.
North Side Primary School All residents of Central City start here, from Preschool to Grade Six.
CENTRAL

Central Center The bustling center of civilization, where businesses, shopping centers, schools, etc. reside, as well as...
The Central Hub A towering glass and steel structure inside which all police, law, and government activity takes place.
Heartside High The biggest high school and closest to Central City, therefore the safest. Rich, upper-class students go here.
