**Book four in the award-winning post-apocalyptic series... at the end of the world, there's no time to mourn**The Dead Aren't the only thing to fear... A kid, an old lady, and a heartbroken man...what could possibly go wrong?Mikey is holding true to his promise to Nina, and is doing everything he can to keep the group alive. But when something attacks the threesome in the middle of the night, things begin to take a turn for the worst. Luckily a new group-the N. E. O.s are on hand to ease Mikey's burden and help fight alongside him. But first he must prove his worth to the leader Aiken and the people that follow him. Within this new group, Mikey begins to find a form of peace that he didn't think was possible after losing Nina, and he discovers his place within this new world. A place where killing isn't for fun, and is only ever committed as a last resort. His heart is still aching, but at the end of the world there's no time to stop and mourn, and as he searches out a Circus Freak Show and the horrors begin to stack up around him, Nina slips far from his mind. It's probably best, because there are many more terrors in store for him. Because within the folds of a small town, inside an old candy store, he meets a woman named Clare, her two dogs and something that he never saw coming.
