Publisher's Synopsis
OUT OF THE ASHES AND INTO THE FIRE Marisol and Elias barely escape from New Chicago, finding a way to slip under the city's mighty wall. Taking shelter in the forbidden area around the city, they find themselves hunted by packs of nightmarish creatures that have begun to breed there. Wounded, exhausted, and out of options, they're saved by a group of scavengers who claim to be from a settlement on the other side of the Great Lakes. But just when things seem to be looking up for Marisol and Elias, a trap is sprung which forces them to confront their fears and work together with the scavengers to find a way to topple New Chicago's brutal dictator.
