Don't take it for granted.

Twenty-year-old Léa Young is hungry... again. Weeks after returning to the Rift Zone, she finds herself back where she started: in a scramble for resources in post-apocalyptic Kenyonville. This time, though, she has allies. Not that it helps much. If Viktor tries to make her eat one more lousy pine needle, she's going to scream.

When Léa and her friends learn about an unexpected power shift in their small town, they decide to risk allying themselves with a new boss. What do they have to lose? But when chasing that alliance dredges up a staggering secret from the past, Léa finds herself having to make an unthinkable decision.

She never expected to love the members of her post-Rift family so much.

And she certainly never imagined she'd have to give one of them up.
