Summary

In the wake of nuclear devastation, the world outside Peaceful Acres has withered to dust, but inside the crumbling care facility, administrator Tobias LeChance fights to preserve order. Supplies are vanishing, desperation mounts, and the residents—once forgotten by society—now hold the last remnants of human connection. As scavengers circle and sickness tightens its grip, LeChance faces an impossible choice: cling to his morality or embrace the unthinkable to ensure survival. When a gang of violent men demands their share, dinner is served—but not everything on the menu is what it seems. How far will humanity go before kindness turns to horror?
