The Saint Marcus Bay Chronicles: Book Three: The Settlement

By Colin Linder

THE SETTLEMENT

Book Three of the St. Marcus Bay Chronicles

Halifax didn't fall in a single day. It rotted from the inside out.

Months after the collapse, Ray thought he understood the rules of survival: protect Claire, protect the dog, trust no one.

He was wrong.

Whispers travel up the coast of a place called The Settlement -- a fortified community rising from the ruins west of the harbour. Crops in the ground. Armed patrols. Structure. Hope.

But hope is expensive.

Inside the walls, safety comes with conditions. Loyalty is measured. Resources are rationed. And the line between leadership and tyranny is razor thin.

When tensions fracture the fragile order, Ray is forced to choose between stability and freedom -- between what keeps his family alive and what keeps them human.

Because surviving the end of the world was only the beginning.

Living in what comes next may cost everything.
