by D. R. Long

ABOUT THE BOOK
A Gift in the Dark
When the Slimbies outbreak began, the warnings sounded like just another emergency broadcast.
A few bad reactions.
A precaution.
Nothing to fear.
But in one small Delaware home, just before Christmas, everything falls apart. Evan brings home a frightened puppy to brighten the holiday, unaware that the world has already begun to die. By morning, Noah, Mara, and the puppy are on the run, leaving behind the only family they’ve ever known. What follows is two harsh years of cold floors, shuttered towns, thin rations, and the too-quiet dead. Together, the three of them learn the rules of a broken world: move early, trust nothing, and stay away from anything that moves.
Bleak, intimate, and rooted in the small mercies that keep us alive, Slimbies: Girl is the haunting origin story of the dog who becomes the heart of the Slimbies world.
