Rule of 3 series.
Adam, his police-captain mother, and retired spy Herb craft a "new normal" for their post-apocalyptic neighborhood by establishing trade between friendly communities. Their futures are soon threatened when an old enemy returns, more determined than ever to destroy the small civilization they've created. The tension between hope for a better world and fear of losing everything drives this thrilling saga to a satisfying conclusion.
