Sick Among the Living

Addy has survived alone inside her apartment for days, watching a fast-spreading sickness tear civilization apart through cracked windows.

Supplies are almost gone, the infected keep closing in, and desperation has already turned ordinary survivors into something worse than the disease.

Then she hears Sawyer—hard, wary, and determined not to trust anyone, far from the savior she might have hoped for.

Staying separate is colder than sharing the risk, so they move through a ravaged Midwest where the living are as lethal as the dead.

An unexpected connection takes root in the ruins, strong enough to push back the despair around them.

Fear still rules every mile, and nothing they find together remains safe for long.
