A thrilling and romantic YA dystopian novel about two teens on a mission to retrieve a vaccine to save their world from a parasitic fungus, inspired by the 1925 serum run to Nome, Alaska.

Perfect for fans of The Last Bookstore on Earth and They Bloom at Night!


June Campbell knows exactly how her life will end. The Viridian—a mind-eating fungus, whose deadly outbreak decimated the modern world—spreading through her respiratory system will eventually overpower her and obliterate her sense of self. But every day from now until then, it’ll make her a little bit stronger, faster, sharper. She’s already the best supply runner in Nome, Alaska—at least, after her sister, who is now struggling with the long-term effects of Viridian, which is slowly wiping her memories away.

But when June discovers that the scientists of Nome are planning to outfit her sister for one last—almost certainly deadly—mission, she has no other choice but to plunge into the wild Alaskan tundra to take on the quest herself. The quest? To travel two thousand miles by dogsled to Anchorage, to recover a serum that just might be a foundational element of a cure for the effects of Viridian, from a scientist she has never met, in a city nobody she knows has ever been to, over a terrain that is littered with dangers, both environmental and human.

June is forced to ally herself with an overlander named Rafael, who comes from a city with customs and secrets of its own, and the two unlikely allies find themselves on a mission that just may doom—or save—the human race. And as the pair face incredible dangers, June realizes she is falling for Rafael. But will they be able to make it back to Nome alive?
