The survivors lived through the horrifying first days of the plague and its aftermath. They've found their friends, their family . . . but others are still missing. Finding them means leaving the only safety they have, which may not be so safe after all. It's the dawn of a new era. One of violence, war, destruction, and horror. Just when they feel as if they've gotten a grip on the situation, fate throws another curveball their way. Every day is a new struggle, a new terrible reality. The only way forward is through it. They have new allies at their backs, and the promise of answers just out of reach on the horizon. If they can just hold out, just hold on, just keep going . . . they have a chance. But a chance isn't a guarantee.
