Seeker

More than a century after a devastating disease erased ninety-five percent of humanity, the American West has fallen back into something older—and far more dangerous.Across the harsh plains and mountains of the Rocky Mountain Free Zone, scattered towns cling to survival. Places like Casper, Wyoming, stand together against the lawless violence that stalks the land. Beyond their borders roam raiders and warbands who live by brutality, taking what they want and leaving little behind but ashes.In this broken world, a Seeker is a rare and valuable thing—someone trained to track down lost relics of the old world, knowledge that might help the scattered remnants of humanity endure.But this time the Seeker is not searching for an object. He is searching for a girl.Kidnapped by a ruthless band of ravagers from the ruins of Denver, the child may possess a gift that could change the balance of power across the frontier. In the wrong hands, it could mean disaster for the fragile communities struggling to survive.And the farther the Seeker rides into the violent lands beyond the Free Zone, the clearer one truth becomes:Some things are worth finding. Others are worth killing to keep hidden.
