Sergeant Cameron 'Jet' Shipley was only six years old when they silently descended through Earth's skies in June of 2026, annihilating 85% of us. 16 years later, Earth is a wasteland, and humanity is painfully familiar with an inescapable truth: one look into the eyes of a gorgon, and it's all over.

Terror lurks around every corner, and the rules of survival are simple: stay quiet, move quickly, and don't ever look. It's a post apocalyptic Earth in 2042, and nearly all of humanity has been annihilated by 'gorgons' - horrific aliens with the ability to telepathically paralyze and then consume their prey, leaving the victims to feel every excruciating bite. Mostly impervious and nearly impossible to kill, the best defense against them is simply to run.

Sergeant Cameron "Jet" Shipley has been running since he was seven years old. Jet and his younger brother, Rutty, are part of an underground military bunker in Clarksville, Tennessee that provides shelter, training, and solace to those willing to fight back. But when a new recruit joins their ranks and reveals a secret that could change everything, Jet is faced with a difficult decision: follow orders, or fight for the truth? As the brothers navigate a dangerous, dystopian world filled with gorgons and treachery, they must confront the ultimate question - who can they trust
