When Wyatt lost his wife and children during The Change, he never expected to feel anything for another person again. But when a dog named Dantes and his pain-in-the- neck mistress Remy start to edge their way in, Wyatt can’t help but go along for the ride. Even if it means getting his hands dirty against the Strangers.

Remy’s life since The Change has had one purpose: keep the crystal her grandfather entrusted to her safe and secret. Though she hardly knows Wyatt, the man who always seems to have a chip on his shoulder, yet makes her go hot and tingly when their eyes meet, she can’t help but be a little excited when he agrees to join her on the journey to understand the crystal.

Faced with zombies, the Strangers, and the desolation of the crumbled world around them, Wyatt and Remy find something more than comfort in one another...something maybe worth fighting for.
