The Dead-Tossed Waves

A teen girl must return to the deadly forest her mother escaped in the sequel to the New York Times bestseller, The Forest of Hands and Teeth, perfect for fans of The Last of Us.

Years ago, Gabry’s mother journeyed into the Forest of Hands and Teeth and came out the other side. She raised Gabry by the sea, where they’ve both lived quiet lives, protected by the barrier that surrounds their town.

But life after the Return is never safe.

And there are some threats no defenses can hold back.

Gabry’s mother thought she left her secrets behind, only like the dead in their world, secrets don’t stay buried. And now Gabry’s world is crumbling.

All it takes is one night beyond the Barrier . . . one boy Gabry’s known forever and one veiled in mystery . . . and everything changes. Now Gabry is sure of only one thing: if she is to have any hope of survival, she must face the forest of her mother’s past.
