Book Description:
Kill or be killed is the new
normal for Sawyer, Sara, and the survivors of the deadly virus that has all but
annihilated the human race.
With the death of Sara’s father
and the disappearance of the strange boy known as Mason, the teens are left
reeling, but alongside the enigmatic ex-Marine, Edward, they soon forge an
alliance with a collection of young survivors led by the sage and charismatic
Kai.
Nevertheless, when their new
companions begin to mysteriously disappear, the group is once again thrown into
a desperate struggle for survival, where only the most cunning and relentless
will prevail.
Ultimately, among whispers of
top-secret military bunkers, lost gold, and a shadowy group known as the Cult
of the Crow, Sawyer and Sara must face the grim realization that death and
betrayal lurks in every corner, and when it comes to the end of the
world--nothing is what it seems.
Excerpt:
Sawyer leveled the shotgun at the
nearest set of bushes, but just as he was about to begin the countdown, there
was the faintest sound of a gun cocking, and suddenly the thick brush ahead of
him erupted in a hail of gunfire. Sawyer had once heard his father say that
sometimes in war all you can hope for is to “return fire and pray,” but with
bullets flying only inches past his body, there was no time to talk with God.
Instead, he dropped to one knee and squeezed the trigger as fast as he could,
pumping three rounds of double-zero buckshot into the brush.
He heard a shriek of pain and a
low groan as the last round of buckshot tore through the bushes, but there was
no time to breathe easy. The boy looked back at the cliff behind him and grit
his teeth. There was no question that Sawyer had been born with luck on his
side, but even he knew that he could not hope to survive another volley of
gunshots at such close range. He could hear movement in the brush, and with
only one bad option left on the table, Sawyer emptied the last three rounds
from the shotgun into the bushes, swallowed hard, and leapt off the edge of the
cliff.
