The Infected extend their control, but New Avalon stands free, although at a high cost.
Marius is missing, presumed dead, but Torres refuses to give up on him, determined to launch a rescue if only she knew where to look. Miranda struggles with the Infected’s growing influence on her mind. Under John’s command, the New Avalon Rangers guard against the Infected, scavenge supplies, and rescue people.
But the Infected aren’t the only threat the survivors face. When a neighboring community makes contact, New Avalon must decide whether to trust other non-Infected or risk fighting multiple enemies at once.
Will divided loyalties, tangled family ties, and the evolving Infected destroy humanity’s chances just as they start to rebuild?
