Before the end of the world, Talia was known only as her father's daughter. In the small town of Ferrir, Virginia, Coach Keller was a name that everyone knew all too well. Which meant Talia Keller was also a name that found itself into most conversations. Following the death of her mother, most thought she would never bounce back. But just two months after burying Lucille, Talia packed her bags and left for college. If it hadn't been for the nationwide shutdown, Talia may have very well spent the apocalypse on the west coast. But because her entire campus was forced to go home at the last minute, Talia found herself back home just in time for dead people to start walking around.

It didn't take long for her father to crack. In just six short months, Talia went from being Coach Keller's daughter to being Negan's daughter. And the worst part was that Talia wanted nothing to do with her father's empire. She wanted to be on the right side of history and it was very obvious that the Saviors were anything but.

Three years later, after her father dominates yet another community of good people, Talia stumbles across something that immediately peaks her interest. A prisoner from Alexandria tells her what it's like away from the Saviors and Talia realizes that she finally has a chance to escape her father — and his wicked plans for the future.
