A quick tease of action and a few of the many characters you’ll follow through the novel. Rylan and Dillion are husbands who will fight whatever the apocalypse throws their way, as long as they have each other.

Penn and Farrah are newlyweds who never expected to begin their life together fighting to stay alive.

Patrice has already lost her son after the world ended, and now all she has is her little daughter Keisha and the found-family she’s made inside the walls of the Vernon High School settlement.

Rev. Tucker tries to hold his mall colony together alongside Mayor Collins, but not all dwelling there are willing residents.

And the amnesiac who calls herself Doe, has come to Vernon with no past and no memories of the world before it fell. She will discover that her life needs no prior history to forge a new one.
