After a nuclear war and living dead plague has spread through most of the world, communities were formed. Everything is different. The poorer communities scavenge from those who prosper, and a New Government is struggling to take control in what used to be the United States of America. Down south, near Florida, is where a young teenager named Gwen Davis, her mother, and aunt all have decided upon in the Saturn Community. It was there she found her new family, a new start. It made more sense to pretend everything was just another move as she was thrown from the world of high school and prom nights to scouring for supplies and learning how to defend their new community alongside the others that weren't medical or teachers or cooks. Through her teenage years, Gwen will really see what keeps them together both mentally and physically, and if this makeshift family bond will even last at all.

After learning of possibly the only safe place on the continent, Florida and all other states and countries become overridden by the Restless and insignificant to survivors. Eleni and Neri are going to embark on a daring trek all the way from Florida back to the Canadian border, where the remainder of the survivors have relocated. Will they be able to make it alive, or will they both die trying? ©2013 by E. Barnes.Complete
