Synopsis "The Lost Ones"
This is not your everyday post-apocalyptic read. This novel is as layered as you get: poetic, fast-paced thriller, action & adventure, suspense, dark, a bit of mystery, a dash of horror (mostly to the reader seeing the psychological toll a post-apocalypse can have), and much more. Take the ride. Strap on. It's bumpy, baby. The Lost Ones moves back and forth in time, between the two main characters, Sam and Hank, portraying Hank's life leading up to the apocalypse, during, and after. Sam's narrative begins with him waking up, discovering he has lost the memories of his life before Hank, and sets upon traveling with him seeing places from his past, which unlock memories of old-for better or worse. The Lost Ones illustrates how easy it is to lose oneself, how varied and unique a life can break, the beauty and pain of relationships, and above all else, humanity.
