The world ended not with a bang, but with silence. When the infection tore across the country, survivors clung to any refuge they could find. For the ragtag community inside a fortified shopping mall, survival is a fragile balance - hunted by the infected outside, divided by fear and suspicion within. Trevor Hawthorne, a weathered blue collar elder, with more scars than trust, struggles to hold his people together as resources dwindle. Brandon Hicks, once a trauma therapist, now treats wounds both seen and unseen. Among them are strangers-turned-allies whose differences could mean salvation... or spark a fracture too deep to heal. But beyond the barricades, something stirs - a force that threatens not only their lives, but the last fragile hope of unity in a world already hollowed out. A gripping blend of heart-pounding suspense and intimate human drama, Hollow Nation: First Light explores what it means to rebuild when the old world's shadows still haunt the new. In the dawn of this broken age, survival is only the beginning.

This is the original, unedited version of Light as a Feather, Book #1. This book was the inspiration for the Hulu Original Series. The revised version is now available in bookstores throughout the USA & Canada from Simon Pulse. McKenna Brady thinks her junior year of high school is going to be the best ever when she's welcomed into the elite group of popular girls at Weeping Willow High School led by blonde, gorgeous Olivia Richmond. Prior to junior year, McKenna was known in her small town as the girl whose twin sister died in a tragic house fire, and she's overjoyed at the prospect of redefining her identity. She has a date to the Homecoming dance with Olivia's handsome older brother, and a good chance of being elected to student council. For the first time since McKenna's parents divorced, things are looking up. But everything changes the night of Olivia's Sweet Sixteen sleepover birthday party. Violet, the shy, mysterious new girl in town, suggests that the girls play a scary game called Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board, during which Violet makes up elaborate stories about the future ways in which beautiful Olivia, brassy Candace, and athletic Mischa will die. The game unsettles McKenna because she's already escaped death once in her life, but she doesn't want to ruin her friends' fun. It's only a game, she reminds herself.
