It's been five years since the sun has mysteriously disappeared. Five years since the world went into chaos. Five years of no laws, no government, and no school. About half the population is already gone. Whether they died from starvation, murder, suicide, it's didn't matter anymore. All that mattered was keeping your loved ones and yourself alive. There was no such thing as safe anymore. You have no time to grieve. Every second is a second closer to your death. What lies behind every corner is unpredictable. Unimaginable. Insanity has taken over many, making them delusional and an easier target for those looking for blood. Weakness is a threat. Unaffordable, unless you want a one-way ticket to bleeding out on the ground with a bullet wound in your side. This is the apocalypse. Humanity has gone too far down the drain to climb back up. Extinction is a danger. Whether you hold a gun or a knife as your weapon, one wrong move and you're soul is floating away from your lifeless carcass. Weaklings aren't allowed to live. It's Everyman for himself. Jordan has been surviving for these five years with her best friend, Alec. Without him, she would be dead. So when he's taken by a mysterious black van, she's determined to get him back. She soon finds out that this small abduction may be way bigger than she ever thought. "How much would you be willing to sacrifice to save someone you love until it becomes too much?" -Anonymous
