In the years after the Abandonment, the event's survivors face yet another devastating struggle. Michael does his best to treat the persistent illness, but he secretly wonders if it marks the end of them all.
Until the child appears. A child who seems to offer hope.
But hope might prove the biggest challenge of all.
"Like early Ray Bradbury, Rusch has the ability to switch on a universal dark."
