Rock and a Hard Place

A violent community raging against extinction. An emboldened daughter rising from the ashes of a tyrant. A burned-out sheriff searching for meaning through murder.

And Jake Pettman, trapped in the middle.

Following the collapse of the Nucleus, Jake vows to stay and protect Celestia while she rebuilds. When the drones overhead indicate that Sheriff Gordon Kane and the people of Mossbark are plotting to rise against the weakened community, Jake demands that Celestia strengthen the Nucleus’ defenses.

But Celestia is a new leader with a new vision, and instead decides to open her lands to the world beyond. And all the fire and fury that burns within it.

Leaving Jake with a choice to make: Let the Nucleus die, or get himself killed trying to save it.

Whatever he chooses, he can be sure of one thing:

Every choice has deadly consequences.
