Dear Z A Journal Account of the Collapse End

Dear Z: Animals in a Box (Book 2)The silence is louder than the screams.The world beyond the tree line has vanished into a gray tide of rot. For the survivors, the open road was a death trap; now, the ancient, jagged heights are the only sanctuary left. But as winter's first frost settles into the stone, the realization sinks in: they aren't just hiding in the mountain. They are trapped inside it.In the claustrophobic darkness of the caves, the "Quiet" takes on a new, predatory edge. Resources are dwindling, the cold is a physical blade, and the thin veneer of civilization is stripping away like dead skin. When every footstep echoes and every shadow holds a threat, the greatest danger isn't the shuffling horror outside-it's the person sleeping beside you.In Book 2 of the haunting Dear Z series, the struggle for survival turns inward. How long can you stay human when you're living like an animal? How do you protect a heart in a place made of stone?Deep in the rock, the monsters aren't the only ones hungry.
