And in the end, even when it seems that the spread of this worm-like parasite has been stopped…we know it hasn’t.

Now five years later, in Garden, what was feared has turned into fact. The world is a changed place. Shorelines and open water, all strictly out of bounds, patrolled by soldiers who are ordered to shoot to kill.
