Toxic Tides

NO SAFE WATER

No one saw it coming. One day, the rivers flowed. The next, they were poison.

For Hazel Northrup, it’s the day she escapes the only world she’s ever known—a fanatical water-worshipping cult deep in the Oregon wilderness. With her little brother in tow, she flees into a dying world, vowing to keep him safe from both the toxic wasteland and the ruthless men hunting them.

Miles away, a remote research team discovers something far worse than silence: water that kills. Stranded and grieving, scientist Emily, survivalist Bash, and their last remaining colleague make a desperate bid to escape the forest—only to collide with Hazel and Caleb.

Forced into an uneasy alliance, the group must navigate a world unravelling by the hour. Wildfires rage. Disease spreads. And the cult, still hoarding clean water, is rising as a brutal new power.

With supplies dwindling and the last safe haven miles away, survival isn’t guaranteed.

The further they go, the clearer it becomes: this isn’t just a disaster. It’s a collapse.


INTO THE MIRE

They thought the wilderness would keep them safe. They were wrong.

Weeks after escaping the toxic collapse of civilization, Hazel and her found family are holding on by grit and ingenuity. Bash’s remote cabin offers a fragile refuge—and the last clean water they can find. But even deep in the Oregon wilderness, safety is an illusion.

When a group of desperate strangers stumble into their camp, kindness comes at a cost. A betrayal puts their hidden spring at risk—and draws the attention of the very people Hazel fled from: the Wellspring cult. Now armed and allied with a rogue faction of the National Guard, the cult is no longer just dangerous—they’re a rising power.

Hazel and the others face impossible choices. Every resource is limited. Trust is thinner than ever. And as tensions escalate, they’ll have to fight to keep their sanctuary from falling into the hands of those who would weaponize water itself.

They’ve survived storms, sickness, and starvation. But war is coming—and it’s not just the world outside that could destroy them.


DEADWATER

In a world on the brink of chaos, a father must learn to let go.

After destroying the Church of Humanity, Jim Parker is a hero of the rebellion. But his mission is just getting started. Living on the run takes its toll on Finn, Ava, and their friends, but Parker gains hope from the ordinary people he sees performing small acts of resistance every day. When word reaches the rebels that the malicious Colonel Brian Hays is inside the Council compound, they hatch a plan to infiltrate the stronghold and take him out. Parker offers to lead the operation, but he has another goal in mind: convincing his daughter Sara to join his side—whether she wants to or not.

When the planned raid on the compound goes awry, Parker finds himself a prisoner of the Council. Now, he’ll have to do what he can to help his friends from the inside while attempting to bring Sara over to the resistance—but does a father really always know best?
