In a world where the dead walk and the living are worse… survival isn’t enough. Clay is an old soldier in a broken land—a man who’s lost too much to believe in hope, yet refuses to stop fighting. With his loyal hunting dog, Rufous, at his side, Clay navigates the shattered roads of post-apocalyptic America, where every mile is paid for in blood. When fate pulls him into a desperate stand with a ragtag band of survivors holed up in an abandoned fairground, Clay faces a keep running… or make a final stand for something worth saving. Outnumbered, outgunned, and surrounded by enemies both living and dead, Clay will draw on every skill the old wars taught him, and every ounce of his cunning, to protect the few lives that still matter. This is a stand alone Novel in Clay’s journey, continuing the saga of the best-selling Five Roads to Texas series.
