Terrorized by memories of the past, Coretheen Nerites wanders the decaying streets of Old Chicago as glimpses of her lost family pull her into misery. Consumed with despair, her hope only fades with the dimming of the lights as a predator bares his teeth.

When she assumes all is lost, an eccentric stranger appears, bearing speed and ferociousness beyond human capabilities. This chance encounter turns into a deep friendship. One that throws her against the most potent force on the planet—the Alliance of Coordinated Governments. And the one who reigns over them all, Ashling.

Under the guise of a loving hand, Ashling derives his pleasure from denuding the civilians of their wealth, their freedom, and even their humanity. Manipulating the population below him, he sets out on his task to uncover his true enemy, even if the cost is destroying the world in the process.

That is unless Coretheen and her new allies can begin to find their own strength within themselves.

Sometimes the most shattered souls make the fiercest protectors.

When a virus decimates civilization, those remaining must survive in an unrecognizable world.

Elle awakes from her fever forever changed. Her touch is lethal and power courses through her veins like liquid fire. With four orphaned children depending on her, Elle is terrified of more than Alaska’s brutal winter and the collapsing city—she’s terrified of the darkness growing inside her.

Jackson lost everything to the outbreak: his family, his purpose, his hope. Trading his badge for a bottle of bourbon, he holes himself away, desperate to numb the pain. But when Elle and the kids need help, the walls around his heart begin to crack. Determined to get everyone to safety, Jackson leads them into the wilderness, relying on instinct and the traditions of his people to keep them safe.

Only, in a world where the greatest threats aren’t the cold or starvation, but what humanity has become, new monsters lurk in the shadows, capable of impossible things.

The longer Jackson clings to his grief and Elle hides her devastating secrets, they risk losing not only each other, but everything they’re fighting to save. And to survive what’s coming, they’ll have to shed the past. Because family isn’t about blood, it’s about who you’d die to protect and who you’d dare to live for.
A soul-stirring tale of found family, impossible choices, and the courage to fight for hope when darkness feels endless.
