Lost

In a drowning world frozen by fear, the only way forward is to face the storm...Six months after the catastrophic flood that drowned coastal cities worldwide, survivors face an even deadlier threat-a rapidly advancing ice age that threatens to finish what the waters began. The United States lies fractured: President Buchanan clings to power in what remains of the East, Governor Schultz builds a citizen army in the Mountain States, and California's Governor Booker forges disturbing alliances with foreign powers.When Russian cosmonaut Yuri Sharipov crash-lands with evidence of Chinese activity in Antarctica, engineer Bobby Rodriguez abandons his family to help deliver this explosive intelligence to the president. Meanwhile, marine biologist Ellie Fischer and teenage Jodi Baxter infiltrate California on a mission that becomes desperately personal when they discover Jodi's father-long presumed dead-working alongside Governor Booker.As scientist Dr. Edwin "Buzz" Baxter leads a dangerous expedition north toward Chicago to discover the source of the unnatural freeze, he confronts the horrifying possibility that his xenobot creation has triggered an extinction-level event beyond anyone's control.With multiple storylines converging and the ice advancing relentlessly southward, the scattered survivors must navigate treacherous political waters, unexpected alliances, and devastating betrayals in a desperate race to save what remains of humanity.The thrilling fifth installment in the Deluge series raises the stakes to their highest level yet, forcing characters to their breaking points as they confront both human cruelty and unexpected compassion in a world where nothing can be taken for granted-not even survival itself.
