An electrifying thriller of a gutsy teen and her "prepper" family in lockdown¬-and in meltdown-from the prize-winning author of Nina X. Human beings can survive for about forty days without food; for about three days without water; for about eight minutes without air. But they can't live for one single second without hope. That's what my dad taught us. He said we had to be prepared for what was coming. He said it was better to be ten years too early than one minute too late. That's why he did what he did, on that morning … Written from within the confines of a secret prepper hideaway, this is one teenage girl's survival guide for navigating life under a new, even more deadly pandemic. Will she survive the collapse of everything she knows, and can she save her family – and sanity?
