Cities lie in ruin. Resources grow scarcer by the day. As millions succumb to the aftermath of a global catastrophe, seventeen-year-old Jan must transform from a typical teenage girl into her family’s fiercest protector.
Armed with nothing but their hunting rifles and unwavering determination, she and her family fortify their rural Georgia home against the ruthless marauders who stalk the shadows of this new world. But in a reality where yesterday’s neighbors can become today’s threats, Jan grapples with an impossible dilemma: can she hold onto her humanity while fighting to preserve everything she holds dear?
Collapse is a pulse-pounding young adult survival story that delves deep into the heart of what makes us human when humanity itself seems lost. Through Jan’s eyes, readers will experience the raw emotion, gut-wrenching choices, and unwavering hope that can emerge from the ashes of devastation.
