In cities made of neon-lit ruins and broken promises, she's learnt to survive by cutting corners and making deals in the dark.

D-Day has passed. The American Empire has fallen.

After the woman called Mags spares him, Lance must prove himself useful to her Pack if he wants to survive and live long enough to figure out why she's so obsessed with the World Before.Complete
