Peace rarely lasts long for Casey. As work on the townhouses finishes and bots clear debris from downtown Polson, news of the thriving community spreads fast. A group of survivors arrives from Missoula, desperate for help; a faction of familiar enemies has seized their home and revived old atrocities. Casey's moral compass points him toward the fight, urging him to intervene.

Meanwhile, the chaos in Missoula traps Tommy. He's forced to deal with Mott, a rogue AI with questionable motives. Eager to sever his connection to the SkyFi network, Mott walks a razor's edge to avoid the AI controlling everything. Now confined to a damaged chassis and processing data at a crawl, Mott fights for survival while trying to force Tommy to see the world from a broken, discarded machine's perspective.

Daryl finally catches a break, though not the one he wanted. Too much free time and too many unanswered questions plague his mind. The bot workforce ushers in a new era of prosperity for the surface-dwellers, building modular apartments along the Detroit River. But as the skyline changes and a city is rebuilt, Daryl questions his future -- until Thoth presents a proposal that will transform his life forever, regardless of his choice.

Death, change, and misfortune weigh heavier than ever. The survivors face challenges that shape their paths and alter their outlooks on life. Pick up the final book in The Light Died series to see how their stories conclude.
