If you're an outsider, you're the enemy. A threat that needs to be extinguished. There are no safe places for people like her.
Quinn Davis never could have prepared herself for the world she lives in now. Ten years after a devastating virus ravaged the globe, she finds herself alone in a far more dangerous world. Rules have changed, and the Watchmen are in charge of what's left. Holding onto a promise she made to a lost loved one is the only thing keeping her going as she avoids a painful past before it destroys her. Her journey across the mountains leads to a deadly encounter with the Watchmen that leaves her badly wounded and on the run carrying a dark secret. She awakens in a strange new place, and the handsome man who saved her life decides to keep her captive. She is both intimidated by and attracted to him. When he asks questions she can't answer, she knows she has to escape before her secret has deadly consequences.
The Order of the Watchers answers only to themselves. They are the law. If you are against them, you're a threat. Threats are answered in blood.

Despite his best efforts to extract the truth from her, he can tell she's hiding something. Her desire to escape raises his suspicions, and he agrees to keep her locked up as long as she's a threat.
