Six years ago, the world as everyone knew it ended. First came the plague—a deadly sickness that swept across the globe, leaving millions dead and entire cities abandoned. Then came the disasters. Earthquakes. Floods. Fires. Storms powerful enough to tear apart what little civilization remained. Humanity was nearly wiped from the map. Now, only a handful of survivors remain. Among them are three boys—Jungkook, Jimin, and Taehyung. Best friends who became brothers when the world stopped protecting them. They’ve spent six years learning how to survive the impossible: scavenging abandoned buildings, avoiding dangerous survivors, fighting for food, and never staying in one place for too long. Trust is a luxury. Kindness can get you killed. And getting attached to someone might be the most dangerous mistake of all. Then they find Lily. Alone, exhausted, and barely hanging on, Lily has somehow survived everything the world has thrown at her. But surviving the apocalypse has cost her more than she lets on. She has secrets, scars, and a past she refuses to talk about—and the boys quickly realize that she may be running from something far more dangerous than the world itself. For the first time in years, the three brothers have someone else to protect. But Lily isn't the only one with secrets. As the four of them journey through the ruins of a world that no longer exists, they discover that the greatest threat may not be the plague, the disasters, or even the other survivors. Sometimes, the most dangerous thing left in the world is another human being. And when survival forces them closer together, love, loyalty, betrayal, and sacrifice begin to blur the line between what they're willing to do to stay alive—and what they're willing to die for. Because the world may have ended six years ago... But their fight is only beginning.
