The urge to survive hardens all, even the sweetest girl in her class. Safety is difficult to find, but she makes her own with Dad\u2019s shotgun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The approach of her eighteenth birthday rips open the emotional scab she\u2019d built over her most painful memories. She mourns the ashes of a future that can no longer be, believing the world no longer has any place for happiness. Despite her sorrow, she remains determined to protect her little sister and two adopted siblings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nuclear autumn threatens the crops, lake fish carry the threat of radiation, and the town\u2019s canned goods are nearly gone. Food is scarce, but the people of Evergreen just might make it if luck is with them. Unfortunately, they aren\u2019t the only ones willing to kill for survival, and a large, verdant farm makes for a tempting target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">School may be a thing of the past for Harper, but she\u2019s learning that the hardest part of nuclear war is surviving it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Release Party! &#8211; Please join me on Facebook tomorrow for an online release party.
