Hungry, lost, and scared, sixteen-year-old Nora finds herself her brother's sole guardian after her parents abandon them in the not-quite-empty ruins of Seattle. Born into this bleak and bloody landscape, twelve-year-old Julie struggles to hold on to hope as she and her parents drive across the wastelands of America, a nightmarish road trip in search of a new home. Then came a final blow no one could have expected: all the world's corpses rising up to make more. After years of societal breakdowns, wars and quakes and rising tides, humanity was already near the edge.
