The Lunatic Posse

Home is where you make your beginning, and the place where you find your end in rest. – Eveline Hood.

Kiara Cowan is 16 and the headstrong daughter and great-granddaughter of a survivor of the initial plague. She had a safe home, family, with a future in Lazarus City, but Kiara had been living a life of quiet repose, and she had almost forgotten the reality and the dangers that surrounds her every day.

Once upon a time, the suburb of Lazarus City, lay in the shadow of Central Cascadia, and it was the largest jewel in the crown of the Mid-Nation and it had housed millions of people. When the virus that decimated much of the population took hold, it became an immense graveyard for the monsters that now roam the earth.

Years have passed since the brave men and women retook the city, and Lazarus City had been all but disease free; no one had died from being bitten by the Posse for decades. Her fragile peace is shattered on a beautiful morning in Autumn.

Intelligence, at least initially, begets violence, and the evidence of this is all around her as Kiara approaches Cedarbush, on the road to tomorrow and her future.
