Ember and Shadow
A fragile peace. A desperate search. A darkness waiting in the cold.
Winter has settled over Britain’s ruins, and Johnny and Sarah have found shelter in a remote farmhouse. For the first time, there is a sense of safety—something like family.
But Sarah cannot let go of the brother she lost before the world fell, and Johnny, bound by his own scars, fears what she might find beyond their fragile refuge.
When Sarah sets out alone, Johnny is forced to follow with only the dog Milo at his side. What begins as a pursuit soon becomes a fight for survival against ruthless strangers, a frozen and unforgiving land—and the first whispers of something far worse stirring in the dark.
Bleak yet tender, The Silent Earth is a story of fractured bonds, unyielding loss, and the dangerous lengths we go to for those we love.
