This is a young adult coming-of-age adventure story set in 2090 about a girl trying to find her way in a world where a virus has decimated society. Despite the dystopian premise, it reminded me of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

The girl, Lareina, who has lived on her own since she was 12, rescues Nick, a naïve innocent and they soon add Aaron, a young man who wants to become a doctor to their team. Lareina is pursued by the mysterious Detective Galloway who wants a pendant that was given to Lareina by a friend before she dies. The group travels north from San Antonio hoping to catch a train to Nebraska.

The virus, climatic changes in the weather, and roving gangs and militias, along with the unstoppable Detective Galloway, create a myriad of challenges for the group on their journey.
This is an imaginative, fast-paced story. Highly recommended for any age group.
