Juno Horvath was never meant to survive this world-but she did.
Raised by her grandfather Dale after being abandoned by a mother who never wanted her, Juno learned early that silence was safer than speaking, and that a sharp knife could protect her better than anyone else ever had. When the world ends, she doesn't break-she adapts.
Tough, quiet, and fiercely observant, Juno carves her place in a world where the dead walk and the living are often worse. With Daryl Dixon slowly becoming the closest thing she's ever had to a father, and Carl Grimes breaking through her guarded shell, Juno begins to believe survival might mean more than just staying alive.
But it's not until the Kingdom that she meets Rowan Calder-a soft-hearted, emotional girl who wears her pain on her sleeve and teaches Juno that feeling isn't weakness... it's strength.
Together, they learn that even in the apocalypse, there are things still worth holding onto: loyalty, love, and the pieces of yourself you almost forgot how to feel.
A coming-of-age story set in the ruins of the old world-where silence is a weapon, softness is a rebellion, and survival is just the beginning.
