In a dying city, she finally learned what it means to live.
Jinn Marshall should have been on the last evacuation flight to Mars. Instead, she and her best friend Pseudo are stuck in climate-decimated Atlanta, where most are either addicted to a devastating new street drug or working for Jinn's ex, Xandar, leader of the cartel.Since Xandar tried to kill her in a fit of possessive rage, Jinn has lived in the shadows of infrastructure collapse, quietly producing food to feed her neighbors. But when she finds a starving three-year-old orphan named Sebastian, she takes him to the only available safe sanctuary, inadvertently revealing her whereabouts to Xandar. Now she has to stay one step ahead of him.
Jinn, Pseudo, and their small group of friends devise a strategy for bringing down the cartel, but their plans accelerate when Xandar kidnaps Sebastian. The group must break into the drug compound to save him-a rescue which turns into a battle for their own lives and the soul of Atlanta.
Debut author J.D. Marcey's insightful apocalypse is a compelling portrait of strength, ingenuity, and tenacity, misted with nostalgia for a beloved city not yet lost. In the tradition of great science fiction, Exodus Missed reminds us of who we are and what we can become.
