A journey through a dangerous Pennsylvania

In a world transformed by a virus that creates flesh-eating undead, 17-year-old Winter sets out across Pennsylvania after her insulin supply is destroyed. Her diabetic service dog, Crowbar, travels with her, as does Eliot, the leader of a nearby settlement whose faith in Winter contrasts with her instinct to rely on no one. The road brings threats from the undead, teenage cultists and mechanical trouble, while someone from Winter’s past puts their tentative trust at risk. The setup connects survival-horror danger with questions of dependence, trust and what makes a threat human.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers who enjoy survival stories involving a perilous journey

Book overview

They'll chase you. They'll catch you. They'll swallow you whole.

 

Even before the frostbite virus started turning people into mindless, flesh-eating monsters, 17-year-old Winter preferred being alone. Crowbar, her diabetic service dog, is the only one she trusts in a world that has never felt safe.

 

However, when her insulin supply is destroyed, Winter is forced to embark on a perilous road trip across Pennsylvania with Eliot, the idealistic leader of a nearby settlement. To survive, they must learn to trust one another, though Eliot is everything Winter isn't: generous, kind, and convinced she's worth saving.

 

As they battle hordes of undead, teenage cultists, and car trouble, a figure from Winter's past resurfaces, threatening not just Eliot and Winter's fragile bond, but also their lives.

 

At the end of the world, the worst monsters are those with human faces.
