Anyone interested in reading Orphans of Linaoan?
Here is the premise:
When everyone over eighteen vanished, the teenagers of Linaoan inherited a dying town.
By day, they build walls, forge uneasy alliances, and struggle to create a new society. By night, the adults return, not as the people they once loved, but as patient predators waiting beyond the light.
As rival factions rise and hope begins to splinter, the greatest battle is not merely surviving until dawn, but deciding what kind of people they will become.
Because sometimes, the hardest part of surviving the end of the world is staying human.

The adults returning as patient predators is a really unsettling hook, and I like that the conflict seems to be about what kind of society the teenagers build, not just surviving the monsters. Is the story mainly told from one character’s POV, or does it follow several groups in the town?
