"I'd give it more stars if I could...Characters well developed, plot intricately woven, and twists and turns at every corner!" -Amazon Top 500 Reviewer ★★★★★

A hijacked cruise ship. A deadly virus unleashed. The fate of mankind hangs in the balance...
In a near future devastated by famine and disease, the United States balances on the cusp of collapse.

When terrorists hijack a lavish cruise ship, wealthy Amelia Black is forced into hiding with Gabriel Rivera, an enigmatic stranger with a dangerous secret. He's her only hope--if she can trust him.

Despite their overwhelming differences--and the killers hunting them--the pair must form an unlikely alliance to survive. As the lines between enemies and allies blur, they uncover a new catastrophic threat: a world-ending bioweapon hidden on the ship.

What starts out as a single, terrifying incident will soon evolve into a race to save mankind from an extinction-level event...

With hundreds of five-star reviews, thousands of sales, and millions of pages read, this explosive post-apocalyptic series features compelling characters, fast-paced dystopian action, and ripped-from-the-headlines twists.

*Rated PG-13 for mild language and moderate violence.*

Praise for this book

"I was captivated by Kyla's writing style and storytelling. Kyla's words are delicious. I'm talking, Cookie Monster going after an entire plate of macaroons kind of delicious. I could go on (and on) about this book. I guess what I'm saying is: read it. Whether you like YA or adult, prefer literary or genre fiction, this is one of those stories that nearly anyone can find a piece of themselves within." - Holly Jennings
