YA&Teenfiction
CompletedWhen the world turned to ashes, hope became humanity's last shelter from the radiation. Year 2089 — ten years after the Great Burning. Above the Arctic, the eternal radioactive storm known as the Polar Vortex is devouring what's left of civilization at twenty kilometers a day. In the Rust Belt Corridor of Detroit, the wind forever reeks of iron dust and fallout. This wasteland is all that Jack Steele and his younger sister Lily have ever known. But Lily has Phosphorescence Syndrome. Her bones glow faintly beneath her skin, and her death is certain within three months. When the radiation meter Jack traded his life for reads 0.8 Sv per hour, he realizes time is running out. Then, amid a brutal clash between Scavengers and Shelter survivors, Jack finds a blood-stained note: Exl Terra, Colorado, 39°44′N, a Purification Station that can cure radiation sickness. Is it a lie… or the final redemption in a dying world?
