In a world ravaged by a deadly plague, one boy may hold the key to humanity’s survival.
He is brilliant, observant, and unlike anyone else. When society’s last hope for a cure lies beyond the safety of their gates, the boy is sent out with a crew of scientists and soldiers into the infected wasteland—into the land where the monsters live.
Set in the same haunting universe as The Girl With All the Gifts, The Boy on the Bridge explores the fragile boundary between science and humanity, and the cost of hope in a world gone dark.
With lyrical prose and unrelenting tension, M. R. Carey delivers a thought-provoking post-apocalyptic thriller about sacrifice, survival, and what it truly means to be human.
