In a world where the dead rise, the living must decide who they truly are.
August 2010. The world is ending.
Petty Officer Second Class Ray Husbands is stationed at Fleet Activities Yokosuka, Japan-a sprawling U.S. naval base on the edge of Tokyo Bay. He spends his days in the comm center, monitoring transmissions, and his nights at the Enlisted Club with his best friend, Tom Hubbard. They joke about rumors of a strange virus in America. They drink ramen. They plan trips to Tokyo.
They have no idea that everything is about to change.
When the Wildfire Virus reaches Japan, Ray and Tom are thrust into a nightmare. The dead don't stay dead. The military collapses. Operation Cobalt-the government's final, desperate protocol-abandons civilians to their fate. And the once-mighty U.S. Navy retreats across the Pacific, leaving thousands stranded.
This is the story of what happens next.
Follow Ray and Tom as they fight to survive in a country that is not their own. From the burning streets of Yokosuka to the frozen mountains of Hokkaido, they will face walkers, desperate survivors, and the slow erosion of everything they once believed. They will lose friends. They will lose hope. They will discover that survival is not the same as living.
Years later, Ray returns to Yokosuka.
The base is a graveyard. The ships are gone. The dead walk the parade ground where he once stood at attention. And in the wreckage of a downed helicopter, he will find a ghost from his past-a reminder of the world that was, and the man he has become.
Set in the universe of The Walking Dead, THE LAST HORIZON is a story of friendship, loss, and the unbreakable human spirit. It is a tale of two sailors who refused to give up-even when the world told them to.
