The Animal In Us

In a world blasted apart, Tetch is no hero. He is a man forged by violence and instinct, surviving the nightmare known as Desolation. Monsters wear human faces, and survival is paid for in blood.

When power fractures between City Proper and the Skirts, betrayal spreads and old wounds reopen. Tetch wants no part of it. Then a boy crosses his path. A boy with a vision that could challenge the ruin and force Tetch to confront what he buried long ago.

To protect that fragile spark of hope, Tetch must face his own limits and the cost of crossing them. In a wasteland where predator becomes prey, survival is not victory. It is compromise.

Perfect for fans of The Road, Altered Carbon, and Mad Max. A gritty dystopian thriller about instinct, identity, and the price of staying alive.
