Those Who Remain

When the end of the world begins in aisle nine of a Miami grocery store, former Aegis Biodynamics research scientist Elijah Cross knows exactly what he is looking at. Those Who Remain follows Elijah and his eighteen-year-old sister, Shania, as they flee a collapsing Florida to seek refuge at Corvine Ridge, a remote Aegis containment facility in Montana.As the infected evolve into terrifyingly adaptive threats-from fast-moving "Hunters" to mimicking "Grievers"-Elijah gathers a fragile, makeshift family of survivors along the perilous two-thousand-mile road. To keep his people alive, Elijah relies on a cold, ruthless arithmetic, calculating the value of human lives against the stark necessities of survival. But with every agonizing sacrifice, abandoned stranger, and devastating lie, Elijah must confront whether the grim math keeping them breathing is costing him the very soul he is trying to save.
