As society collapses and communication with the outside world vanishes, Bobbie is forced to confront the very monsters she once wrote about as they roam the woods just outside her door.

Hardened by loss and armed with the skills to survive almost anything, he's prepared for violence, isolation, and the brutal realities of a dying world. When Bobbie crashes into his carefully controlled survival plans with a group of other survivors, Noah's instinct to protect is reignited, threatening the emotional walls he constructed to survive the monsters in his past.As the infection spreads and dangerous people begin to emerge from the shadows, Bobbie and Noah must navigate a world where trust can be risky-and isolation is deadly.
