In the ruins left by the Dark Wave—a food-borne pandemic that shattered civilization and unleashed monstrous threats—Madison survives on cynicism, still haunted by the loss of her older brother. Her only anchor is Jerrica, a razor-smart fighter with a carbon-fiber cane and an unshakable belief that love still matters.

Now in their 18th and final year of survival school, where kids train in weapons, defense, and disaster response from age four, they’re preparing for the state's final assignment: a job, a destination, a life. For Madison, it’s just something to finish—one more box to check before whatever comes next.

Then Madison sees Jerrica die—in a vivid, unexplainable vision. The glimpse of loss cuts through her apathy and draws her to the Church of Enoch, a cult-like order obsessed with prophecy, ancient Watchers, and gifted seers. There, Madison uncovers a terrifying possibility: her vision was not a warning—it was fate.

To save Jerrica, Madison must unravel the legacy of a Sage who once predicted the end of the world and face truths that turn her bond with Jerrica into both a weapon and a target. As cities haunted by cainers fall and betrayal stalks them from within, Madison faces a brutal choice: defy the prophecy... or become the reason it comes true.

The Bond That Ends Us is a post-apocalyptic thriller about chosen bonds, impossible odds, and the hope we find in each other when the world gives us every reason to give up.
