The world didn't end in a single day.
It happened slowly, piece by piece, until the cities fell silent and something else began walking through the ruins.
They're called the Morrow.
Tall, pale, and almost human, they don't hunt us for food. They hunt us for what we know. Every person they kill gives them fragments of memories, voices, faces, and secrets. And the more they learn, the harder they become to escape.
Twenty-six-year-old Thea Zedler has survived by staying hidden.
Living with dissociative identity disorder means sharing her body with parts of herself who don't always agree on how to survive. When Nyssa takes control, she's colder, sharper, and willing to make choices Thea never could. They may not always understand each other, but they share one rule: keep each other alive.
With her brother Elliott, the man she loves, Marcos, and a small group of survivors, Thea has managed to stay alive while avoiding the Morrow and the ruthless survivors who would do anything to see another day.
But the longer they survive, the more they realize the Morrow aren't simply hunting them.
They're learning them.
And when one of the creatures says Thea's name, she realizes they've learned something they were never supposed to know.
They're not just following her anymore.
They're remembering.
