The great war has arrived. Paz Dedios runs from accusations she cannot escape and from the man whose love now feels like betrayal. Athène burns for vengeance after watching her people face near extinction and her lover die. The Wesah nation rises in fury over the Black Wagon Massacre. The Descendancy battles not just the Sophian army but this newly awakened enemy. In the Anchor, siblings Clive and Clover Hamill face a figure from their past they thought was gone forever. Four young people stand at the center of this final storm. The Descendancy fights for survival. Cities clash in brutal combat. The rules that have governed humanity crumble. Tommy Wallach brings his Anchor & Sophia trilogy to its violent end, where love and loyalty fracture under the weight of war and the cost of survival becomes clear.
