"A consuming work of great unpredictability and power." - Kirkus Reviews

"This is not a formulaic apocalyptic novel-in fact, it's surprisingly inventive and delightfully weird." - Kirkus Reviews

In a rural Michigan town, in a post-Covid world on the brink of a new disaster, Louie discovers an extraordinary ability-he can't die. Fortuitous, if not for the small catch that he doesn't want to live. While everyone else is desperately fighting to survive a global biotic crisis, Louie constantly seeks death only to be resurrected time and time again. Louie is the town nothing. If life was a school yard pick, he would be the last one on the team. Immortality is a burden, a cruel twist of fate, even as he wonders why him and what he is meant to do. But everything changes when Louie meets Katherine, a smart New York City woman determined to survive in this post-apocalyptic world. Finally, Louie has a reason to live, which is good timing because with each death he becomes weaker. It would be a love story if not for all the death and dying. Katherine and Louie aren't living in utopia. There are other survivors who have their own ideas about the future. Ones they're willing to kill for. Louie and Katherine must not only defend themselves and their resources from outsiders but fight against their own darker natures before Louie's strange gift fades away. Amidst the chaos and despair, their story is one of hope, resilience, and redemption. Louie and Katherine, an unlikely modern-day Adam and Eve, will prove that even in the darkest of times, an ending can be a new beginning. CONTENT ADVISORYThis book contains adult themes and explores the darker nature of the human condition. Readers will be exposed to content they may find upsetting, controversial, or offensive, including fictional portrayal of self-harm, suicide, and suicidal thinking.
