Published in 2012. Emma, a 19-year-old girl, who has lived alone in a hut
in the woods for a decade since her father passed away, was taught the basic
rules of survival and how she should hide and protect herself from the infected.
Up to this day she has followed the rules as she was instructed and avoided any
contact with other human beings; she only has her faithful wolf Leo as her
sole company.
But one day she hears the chilling knocking at her hut’s door; a crack she
had feared all these years and now the panic confirmed that the time had come.
For a few seconds she tries to make up her mind on what to do, and then
takes her gun and decides to pull the door ajar.
