The Last Crossing
When the outbreak begins, Maggie Chen is just doing her job - holding a stop sign, shepherding children across the street at Millbrook Elementary. By nightfall, she's the only adult left protecting twenty-three terrified kids in a town overrun by the dead.
Armed with nothing but her military training, a dying radio, and the stubborn will to keep them alive, Maggie leads her charges from safehouse to safehouse - the library, the hospital, the quarry - each step a crossing more dangerous than the last.
As food runs out, as children get sick, as shadows press closer, survival becomes more than staying alive. It becomes about teaching them to endure, to adapt, and to hold onto the pieces of their childhood even when the world no longer allows it.
The Last Crossing is not just a story of zombies. It is the story of children forced to grow up too fast, and of one woman who refused to stop guarding them - even when there was nowhere left to cross.
