With more than just her heart on the line, she must find the location of her great-great-grandmother’s diary.

Five years after a bioweapon called the XBU Virus is accidentally released from a Canadian government laboratory and eradicates 99.5 percent of the global population, survivors Astra Fallon and Jude Waverly emerge from her family's underground bunker.

But Astra and Jude quickly discover the compound is no longer a government-secured scientific sanctuary.
