Beneath the Ashes

あらすじ
In a world where cities lie in ruins and ash drifts through the air like snow, survival is no longer about strength-it's about sacrifice. When the war tears everything apart, a fevered survivor clings to life in the wreckage of a broken city. Beside him, a hardened woman with a rifle and a fragile girl carrying her child are forced together by desperation. Their fragile alliance is tested at every turn: by hunger, by violence, by the merciless rules of those who now rule the ruins. But survival demands choices, and every choice leaves scars. To belong means blood. To defy means death. And in a world where trust is a weapon, love itself becomes dangerous. As betrayal brews inside the crumbling sanctuary of a church and pale-eyed horrors prowl beneath the city's bones, hope flickers only in whispers. Between ash and silence, they must decide what pieces of themselves they are willing to lose-and whether the fragile spark of humanity can survive when everything else is gone. Beneath the Ashes is a heart-stopping dystopian novel of civil unrest, survival, and sacrifice. Perfect for readers who crave the grit of The Road, the emotional depth of Station Eleven, and the relentless tension of The Last of Us.
