What Remains: Children of the Pines Book One (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798999099860)

The world didn't end in fire.
It ended in silence.

Now, in the mountains, the Callahans and their neighbors have carved out something rare-stability. Markets run twice a week. Children study, work, and grow. The Lodge stands as proof that community can survive collapse.

Until a new group arrives.

They call themselves Harbingers. They promise peace. They promise order. They promise a future free of fear.

And their children are listening.

As friendships form and loyalties blur, the adults face an impossible question: how do you fight something that looks like hope?

Because this time, survival isn't about bullets or barricades.

It's about what remains when conviction is tested-and which generation decides what comes next.
