The Cold War culminated into the unleashing of the weaponized Red Mist virus. After a disaster at a Soviet missile silo caused the virus to spread in the Motherland, Soviet leaders launched the virus all over the planet, leading to the fall of mankind. Kimber Balas is a surviver. She has only known the world after the Red Mist virus turned people into infected maniacs. She has lived nearly twenty years without any run-ins with the infected, but all that's about to change.  Her temporary safe-haven is an old 1800s Army post called the Fortress, but it's just that: temporary. Her desire is to find continued safety for her family; something they have never fully known. Can she keep them safe from the infected? From the elements? From each other? Picture art is accredited to @-stellar https://www.wattpad.com/user/-stellar She does amazing work!!! #Wattys2018
