The unlikely survivors are finally able to escape Los Angeles amid disaster and turmoil, but their path is anything but straight. After being derailed by an ambush that strands them outside of a small town run by an abusive tyrant, the group finds a large abandoned plane hidden in the woods.

Missy, still not healed from her wounds, continues to groan, but they would make a suitable home to ride out the storm and hide out. Using books and even life's routines, the group are delusional in thinking things will ever go back to the way they were? When desperation drives a familiar face out of the Los Angeles valley and straight into their path, all hell breaks loose once again.

"This sequel to the original gave me a feeling of being back with old friends in troubled times. This is a series well worth the read." - Matthew McIntosh, Reedsy
