Alexandra E. Monroe wakes up to find that every single human being has vanished and that London, where she lives, is blanketed in eerie silence. She waits-it's what her mum always told her to do if she ever got lost-but no one comes. Alex opens the front door and ventures out into an alien landscape. One without humans. There are no bodies and no remnants of a frantic evacuation. No signs of a battle, no deadly airborne virus, and no zombies trying to kill her. All the people are just gone, vanished in one night. In those first weeks, she searches for other survivors. Will she find a measure of acceptance in her new reality? She will never be happy, but she can be numb. One question always remains, though. Was it all a manmade disaster, an act of god, or did everyone simply leave without telling her? All the while, the world begins to heal itself from the effects of man. Without a mutant human species to pollute and disrupt it, nature starts to find frequency and balance again.Why had Alex survived, and what possible reason was there for her to live on in a world that neither needed nor wanted her?
