How far would you go to survive... when the world ends overnight?
Dan Harper is your average office worker-more at home behind a desk than in the woods. He avoids the outdoors, hates camping, and has never owned a weapon, let alone been in a position where he was forced to defend his life. But when society collapses in the blink of an eye, none of that matters.
Thrown into the chaos of a brutal, apocalyptic aftermath, Dan must confront a world without power, order, or mercy. Dan has never received any specialized training to assist him in this situation. He's not a soldier, not a prepper, not a cop-just an ordinary man facing extraordinary odds. With no training and few resources, he's forced to learn what it means to survive when the only rule left is kill or be killed.
As threats close in-from desperate survivors, violent strangers, and the harsh environment itself-Dan must confront not only the dangers outside, but the darker instincts awakening within. After is a gripping, full-length thriller that explores survival through the eyes of the unlikely and unprepared. Suspenseful, raw, and unflinchingly human, this novel answers the question: What happens when the world ends... and you're the last person you'd want to rely on?
