    Summary

    In a world shattered by a deadly fungal outbreak, silence has become as dangerous as the infected that roam the ruins. A year after civilization collapsed, survivors live cautiously among abandoned cities and creeping decay, where trust can be more lethal than any walker.

    Annabeth has learned to survive alone. Armed, guarded, and exhausted, she moves through the remains of the world with one rule: depend on no one. But when a routine supply run leads to an unexpected encounter with another survivor, her fragile sense of control begins to crack.

    Charlie claims he only wants to help - offering safety, shelter, and something Annabeth hasn't allowed herself in a long time: companionship.

    In a world where survival means staying detached, Annabeth must decide whether risking trust could save her... or destroy what little she has left.
