A deadly world. A fragile bond. A promise that might cost everything.
Kenshiro never asked for a companion—especially not one like Elliott, a quirky teen with a strange gift and a mountain of trauma. But in the ruins of La Veta, Colorado, a dead woman’s note changed everything. Now, Kenshiro has made it his mission to keep Elliott alive. And it’s getting harder by the day.
Wounded, exhausted, and reeling from an encounter that nearly ended them, Kenshiro begins to doubt his ability to protect the boy he never meant to care for. As the safety of their new life crumbles, they’re forced back onto the desolate roads of a ravaged America—where the dead are only part of the danger. Every mile tests the strength of their bond, and every town holds new horrors.
Meanwhile, far from the blood-soaked highways, Elle fights to recover from the harrowing La Guardia mission. Her body is healing, but her mind remains a battlefield. Driven by necessity and guilt, she hatches a bold plan to secure a sustainable future for the survivors in The Prescott. But in her quest to bring hope, she uncovers a chilling truth: not everyone among them is truly on their side.
The dead may be relentless, but the living are far more dangerous.
