Lennox Denwood, daughter of Lucas Denwood, who just so happens to run the West River Colony, one of the strongest groups around. And by surviving, I mean living after the whole world came crashing down on the human race. Economic crash, poverty, sickness, you name it and it probably happened. So many conspiracy theories, and yet we never imagined they would all happen at the same time. So here's poor Lennox, trying to not get married, and then she runs into a hot guy in the woods, and suddenly her life sounds like a cheap vampire story. But this boy is anything but cheap. He's strong, stubborn, driven, and driving Nox absolutely nuts.
After her family is killed by the plague spreading across the globe, Y/N, a scrappy then 14 year old girl with an immunity to the virus, escapes to the Redwoods to avoid the rest of humanity as they set about destroying each other. Here she lives, ridden with survivors guilt and a cynicism towards all things human, until an unlikely meeting with a group of incredibly evolved apes leaves her in an uneasy alliance with their leader.
