During the spread of the deadliest virus in 2054 Philippines, Santhy Gozon struggles to survive to reach the last quarantine. *** A sixteen-year-old student should be worrying about school, friends, girls, growing up-not battling the deadliest virus the world has ever seen, but Santhy doesn't exactly have a choice. This virus doesn't choose its victims-psychosis, paranoia, death-and the only way to survive is to go to the Last Quarantine. Aboard a public bus, Santhy and the other passengers fight for their lives. A virus this lethal and ruthless, a rate of 902 to 1,543 victims a minute...Santhy won't be one of them. At least, that's what he's trying to convince himself. DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish. COVER DESIGN: Louise De Ramos

You can take your life, but what about the people around you? What happens to them? (Book 1 of The Fighter's Series)
