In Leah’s mind, the only thing worse than growing up in post-apocalyptic America, is the pressure of being a Redding in post-apocalyptic America. Her brothers are courageous war heroes, her mom is a living legend and symbol of their rebellion against their oppressors, and then there’s Leah. Battling against post-traumatic stress, Leah adds new material to her nightmares living the horrors of war day after day. Her only refuge is found in her best friend, Ty, her unwavering protector, the anchor in her storm, and the only one who seems to understand her.

"This is the first book I've wanted to recommend in a long time!" They were one of the few who saw it coming and prepared. But all the prepping hadn’t prepared her for this. All Sara Redding ever wanted was to be a stay-at-home mom: love her husband, raise her kids, and scream her lungs out at their soccer games. And she did. She was happy, and she was good at it, until… it was all gone. Not just the dream and her husband… America was gone. It was no surprise when the wars began.

With the war behind her, only one thing was left undone—getting her papa back. Never in her wildest dreams did Mercy imagine that the road which began in Lexington would lead her into the heart of the British empire. Clinging to the hope of a single letter, will faith be enough to guide her heart through the labyrinth of London to find answers and, if he was still out there, her papa?

All the prepping hadn't prepared her for this... There’s a shock that follows the loss of everything you knew, everything you believed, everything you dreamed. And in that terrible moment, frozen in time, your mind fails to process the pain because every descriptive word, everything you once understood, no longer has a foundation, and without a root, the mind cannot decipher meaning. But as the fog begins to fade in the realization that you will not wake from this nightmare, shock gives way to loss, loss to grief, grief to acceptance.
