Those who survived the first year were forced to take drastic measures, and those who held to the veneer of civilization were few and very far between.Seventeen-year-old Tanner grew up after the rain began. She and her adoptive caretaker, Russell, have long sought a fabled Colorado refuge, a dream that has kept them going through years of brutal trials as they try to stay one step ahead of the "face eaters"--people addicted to a mysterious drug that drives them to murder and cannibalism.When the rain began, Rook Wallace was a meteorologist who joined a company called Yasper that, years after its emergency funding dried up, continues its stated mission to help survivors by maintaining a trade network among isolated island communities. But when Rook learns the insidious truth of what keeps the Yasper mission going, he is forced to risk everything that remains of his former life to try to stop it.As Tanner's and Rook's stories converge in time and geography, readers will be thrilled by this postapocalyptic tale for fans of Emily St. John Mandel's Station Eleven and Josh Malerman's Bird Box.

The story of the iconic Anheuser-Busch dynasty, written--for the first time--by a Busch heir.As an heir to the Anheuser-Busch company and fortune, Billy Busch was raised on the real stories of how his family built one of America's oldest and most iconic brands. Since the company was formed almost 150 years ago, the Busch family, their beer, the famous Clydesdales in their advertising, and even their style of business have become a symbol of the American dream--that not-so-outdated belief that hard work, grit, and a positive can-do attitude make anything possible.Growing up on the family's ancestral estate as a prince to the King of Beers, Billy lived a life only kids could dream up--living in an amusement park, traveling by private rail car and yacht, and playing with his pet elephant, Tessie. But as he grew up, he realized that the Busch family legacy was not just wealth and privilege. With no separation between family and business, Billy's father--more boss than dad--continued the tradition of preparing the next generation for corporate leadership, with high and exacting standards for his children. For Billy, all of this, combined with a dysfunctional family environment, was all too normal.Family Reins tells the story of a legendary American family, their rise to power, and their fall from grace through poisonous infighting, succession struggles, and a seemingly endless string of tragedies, scandals, and loss.
