A riveting, standalone post-apocalyptic epic, Apocalyptic Desires follows the journey of Gert Fontane, a survivor navigating a world ravaged by a catastrophic virus.

He finds himself surrounded by a tight-knit group of fellow survivors who become his chosen family, including their children.

When the bruises appear, a teenage girl knows what they mean. Her mother once told her stories—half warning, half confession.

Childhood was an amazing period of life–a time when you were unconditionally dependent on the decisions of adults. Theo always consider herself an obedient child and never thought of being anything else. Obedient children were held up as examples to the neighbors, but even obedient children were sometimes drowned in the river by distraught mothers. Theo often saw fear in her mother‘s eyes.

In search of a job, Theo joins an organization as an evaluator, devoted to supernatural pursuits. Her colleagues and the work she does there test her to the limit.

Despite remaining skeptical, Theo wondered if there was more to the situation than meets the eye. While her scientific background urged her to seek rational explanations, this internal conflict left her questioning whether there were realms beyond her understanding.
