    About this ebook

    In the three years since the Outbreak that caused society to devour itself, groups of survivors have struggled to rebuild their lives.

    While one group seeks to stay off the radar, another is sweeping across the country. However, even in the relative safety of The Sanctuary, not everything is as it seems. Follow the story of Sacks as she joins the ranks of the Rangers, only for her life to be turned upside for the second time.
