The world ended in a flash—and staying human may be the hardest part of surviving it.
When an electromagnetic pulse devastates the planet, wiping out all electronics and killing billions, seventeen-year-old Alex is hiking in the woods, saying goodbye to the ghosts of her past. But now there’s no going back.
With society in ruins, Alex joins forces with Tom, an ex-soldier with secrets, and Ellie, a grieving young girl. As they struggle to navigate the wreckage, they encounter others… but not all survivors are still human. Some have changed in terrifying ways.
Trust becomes a gamble. Survival is no longer the goal—staying alive and sane is.
Ashes is a gripping post-apocalyptic thriller from Ilsa J. Bick, blending psychological horror, survival suspense, and a chilling look at what remains when the world burns.
