One year ago, the world as we knew it ended.
The Kessler Effect turned the skies into a deadly graveyard, sending all lower orbital satellites crashing back to Earth. Now, the once-vibrant town of Alpine is a shadow of its former self, its people hardened by survival in a world where technology has collapsed and trust is a rare commodity.
Tanda Lopez has watched her community grow leaner, tougher, and smarter—but as two mysterious groups approach Alpine, she faces an impossible choice. Are these newcomers allies, offering a chance at rebuilding a fractured society, or are they predators, ready to take whatever they can by force?
In a world where nothing is certain, how do you decide who the good guys are? And when survival is on the line, who can you really trust?
Veil of Hope is a gripping tale of resilience and moral ambiguity in a post-apocalyptic landscape where every decision could mean life or death.
