The World We Burn

From the ashes of a ruined world, hope survives.

After a cataclysmic solar flare, the survivors in Michigan's Upper Peninsula have endured violence, starvation, and lawlessness. Now, a ruthless cartel sweeps north across the Upper Peninsula, stealing supplies, burning towns, and massacring anyone in their path. After a deadly ambush, Eli Pope knows what's coming next: total annihilation.

Sheriff Jackson Cross is under siege. Refugees pour in, desperate and wounded. His deputies are stretched thin. His father has turned traitor. Someone from the inside is feeding intel to the enemy. And in the distance, a wildfire rages-fast, unpredictable, and heading straight for them.

At the Northwoods Inn, Lena Easton works around the clock in a makeshift clinic with no heat, no supplies, and too many wounded to save. Her insulin is nearly gone. Her body is failing. But she can't give up, not while there's still something to fight for.

As the cartel closes in and the fire draws near, one thing is clear: no one is coming to save them. They'll have to make one last, desperate stand, and fight like hell for everything that matters.
