The collapse happened so gradually; nobody saw it coming but the very few.Life-long friendsThree doctors, a realtor, a contractor, and a pro shooter/model, make up the couples who had been lifelong friends and pooled their money to prepare for hard times.

    The residents have a bond and kinship. Nothing in the town is state-of-the-art, except perhaps the ferry. The townspeople brag that Mills Run is isolated, and at times, cut off from the rest of the world. However, not even Mills Run is secluded enough for a global pandemic. When an outbreak of H7N2, or as the news calls it, Whitby Fever, begins striking cats and dogs, it is newsworthy, but not panic-inducing. After all, instances of cross- breed infection with H7N2 are rare. Clare Ashton knew better, yet she was labeled insane when she tried to get the word out, until it is confirmed that Whitby Fever has crossed the boundaries, spreading from domestic pets to humans at an astronomical rate.

A face mask may be her armor, her good heart may be her shield, but there is no weapon to defeat the fever because there is no cure. Mother Nature rages a viral war against the world and Mills Run is one of the millions of battlegrounds fighting to live.
