They'll chase you. They'll catch you. They'll swallow you whole.
Even before the frostbite virus started turning people into mindless, flesh-eating monsters, 17-year-old Winter preferred being alone. Crowbar, her diabetic service dog, is the only one she trusts in a world that has never felt safe.
However, when her insulin supply is destroyed, Winter is forced to embark on a perilous road trip across Pennsylvania with Eliot, the idealistic leader of a nearby settlement. To survive, they must learn to trust one another, though Eliot is everything Winter isn't: generous, kind, and convinced she's worth saving.
As they battle hordes of undead, teenage cultists, and car trouble, a figure from Winter's past resurfaces, threatening not just Eliot and Winter's fragile bond, but also their lives.
At the end of the world, the worst monsters are those with human faces.
