Description
Summary:One year ago, a solar flare scorched the Earth and destroyed life as we know it. With their parents gone and supplies running dangerously low, step-sisters Millie and Rose only have one chance at survival: leave home with their infant half-brother and loyal dog Corncob in search of Millie's grandma, a Seminole elder. As they navigate the burning land with a group of fellow survivors, dodging The Hive, a villainous group that has spent the last year hoarding supplies and living in luxury, the siblings have to learn to rely on each other more than ever, and discover how to build a new life from the ashes.

Author Notes:H.E. Edgmon did not sleep for several years and is now the award winning author of copious novels and short stories for tweens, teens, and adults. Across genres, their work prioritizes the righteous rage of survivors, the sanctity of queer love in all its forms, and an unkillable hope for an Indigenous future. They live on the ancestral lands of the Suquamish Tribe, surrounded by chosen family and giant dogs.
