Imagine being one of the few survivors of a horrific disaster...  You are alive because you were in a safe place.  Some were in subways and some were in walk-in freezers.  An estimate is that 95% of the world's population died.Meet Ben and Lila, teen age workers at an ice cream shop.  They only survived because of the evil intent of their boss who pushed them into the freezer... Now what? When they get out, complete silence in the outer world - only the occasional barking of dogs.Deciding to leave the Boston area, both of them decide to head South.  How about the Appalachian Trail?An excellent portrayal of human nature enfolds not only with Ben and Lila but the others they meet along their way.Lots going on in this one...  An intricate weaving together of two young survivors and their personalities...Survival at all odds is the mission...  Well written with uncanny insight into human nature.  Captivating story...Highly recommended.
