Then he opens his eyes 92 days before the storm, pen in hand, about to sign the loan that started it all. This time, he tears it up.

Now he'll stockpile a world's worth of supplies, watch the Sus beg at his door, and decide who deserves a place in the shelter and who gets left in the cold. But the pendant wasn't made by chance. Someone chose him. And he may not be the only one who came back. Revenge is only the beginning. Want a shorter version for the submission listing, or a punchier tagline to go with it?
