Life After

Thirty years after the world ended, silence is survival.

Rhea Cade knows this better than anyone. Raised in the ruins, hunted for reasons she doesn't fully understand, she trusts no one and moves like a shadow through the wasteland.

When a wounded stranger appears in her path, dying and marked with a strange shard embedded in his skin, Rhea makes the one mistake she's trained her whole life to avoid-she helps him.

Now she's drawn into something deeper than survival. As storms brew and the bounty hunters close in, Rhea begins to suspect the shard isn't just a mutation-it's a key to something ancient and dangerous. And the man she saved, Noa, may be running out of time.

In a world where everything is broken, some things still glow in the dark.
