After The Escape

After the world went dark, every road became a battlefield. Before the global EMP shattered the grid and sent civilization spiraling into ruin, a single bullet could end a life. Now, it guarantees a slow, agonizing death. Rob is bleeding out in a world without doctors, medicine-or mercy. And time is running out. Claire has one mission: find help-fast. But in a lawless wasteland crawling with killers, slavers, and scavengers, every step is a gamble. Worse still, the Carringtons are hunting them, and they won't stop until Rob's body is in the dirt. When a brutal militia razes the last refuge the Taylors called home, they're forced to flee into the unknown, chasing desperate whispers of a hidden sanctuary deep in the wilds of Washington State. Along the way, they encounter fellow survivors-each marked by trauma, each with their own secrets. Trust is rare. Mistakes are fatal. And as enemies close in from every direction, the Taylors must confront a brutal truth: to survive in this world, it's not just about how far you're willing to go... It's about what you're willing to become.
