To Build a New House

by Katherine Stewart

Biological weapons have been loosed, devastating the human race. Among the survivors are Leah and Sara Davidson, who must make their way from their home to find a place to rebuild their lives. Searching for a safe place, they travel from Grand Junction, Colorado, to Monterey, California, facing dangers along the way. In Monterey they join Leah's uncle Tim and a group of survivors. They all must now learn to live in a new culture with new challenges. Leah and Sara join the few left in Monterey to find a way to go on in a world that is wholly changed. As they recover, Leah and Sara find the strength to build a new life, overcome unexpected challenges and face their grief. New friends come into their lives, and they grow into strong, capable women.
