Flames And Gunshots

When gunshots tear through the quiet town of Brooklyn, Connecticut, Livia Everett runs with nothing but instinct, fear, and the will to survive. The world she grew up in collapses in a matter of hours, leaving behind abandoned streets, wrecked buildings, and the terrifying realization that safety no longer exists.

As chaos spreads and trust becomes a risk, Livia learns how quickly ordinary life can vanish. Forced to scavenge, hide, and make impossible choices, she discovers that survival is not just about food and shelter, but about who you choose to stand beside. When she crosses paths with other teens navigating the same broken reality, fragile alliances form in the shadow of violence, gangs, and inevitable danger.

Flames and Gunshots is a tense novel about emotional survival that is a mix of fear, loyalty, and coming-of-age moments in a world where childhood perishes overnight. Through Livia's eyes, the story explores grief, courage, love, and the thin line between humanity and brutality when society falls apart.

Raw, immersive, and deeply personal, this novel follows young survivors as they fight not only to stay alive in a dystopian time but to hold onto who they are when everything familiar is gone.
