Tess was a woman who lived by a simple code: survive at any cost. But when a shimmering rift in the Boston ruins drops a terrifying, golden-eyed empress from another realm into her lap, the cost of survival suddenly changes. Mileena is a queen without a throne, a predator fighting the feral hunger of the Tarkat plague. She was supposed to be a monster, but in this gray, dying world, she might be the only thing resembling a miracle. When Mileena's blood proves to be a more potent-and violent-cure than Ellie's immunity, the mission to the Fireflies shifts from a delivery job to a journey of blood and bonded souls. As they trek across a fractured America, Tess finds her hardened heart softening for the fierce, volatile woman at her side. Between the clicker hordes and the ruthless hunters, a new kind of family is forged in the fire.
