About this ebook

The wells have run dry, and the land has turned to a graveyard of salt and sand. For generations, people have clung to the edges of survival, bartering blood for water under the shadow of warlords who control every drop. Among them, Nia—a young mother driven by the echo of her child’s cough—sets her sights on the horizon, where rumor whispers of a river that still flows.


But the desert is not empty. Bands of raiders stalk the wastes, and old machines half-buried in dust rumble back to life. Nia must lead her family through shifting dunes and fractured alliances, where betrayal costs less than a mouthful of water. Each step toward the horizon brings her closer to truth: that survival is not just about quenching thirst, but about deciding what kind of future can be built in a dying world.


At the edge of despair, the horizon thirsts for sacrifice.
