A matter of days

On Day 56 of the Blustar Pandemic, sixteen-year-old Nadia?s mother dies, leaving Nadia to fend for herself and her younger brother, Rabbit. Both have been immunized against the virus, but they can?t be protected from what comes next. Their father taught them to ?be the cockroach??to adapt to and survive whatever comes their way. And that?s their mission.Facing a lawless world of destruction and deprivation, Nadia and Rabbit drive from Seattle to their grandfather?s compound in West Virginia. The illness, fatigue, and hunger they endure along the way will all be worth it once they reach the compound.
