A novel like a road movie: gritty, dystopian, and intense!

After Helter Skelter, the world collapses, and 16-year-old Sauterelle becomes a displaced person, far from her sister and athletic dreams. In Anchorage, her meeting with Nils sparks a new beginning. Together, they journey across a lawless United States ravaged by civil war toward Los Angeles, hoping to reconnect with their families. In this shattered world, their story is one of hope, resilience, and finding one’s true place and self-worth.
