    Summary

    There was something about this moment - just before the storm, when everything went still - that felt almost holy. Like the world holding its breath.

    Then he heard it.

    Faint, but sharp. A thin, warbling sound carried on the wind.

    He froze.

    Whistle.

    Not birdsong. Not wind. Not anything natural. That was a whistle - one of those emergency ones, the kind you bought in a hiking store and hoped you’d never need to use. Three quick bursts. A pause. Then three long ones. Then three quick ones again. Someone was out there.

    or

    For three years, the silence of his remote mountain cabin was everything Daryl wanted. He had a life built of solitude and self-reliance, a world where the only person he had to answer to was himself, but that silence is shattered by the arrival of Rick Grimes - a city man with a busted ankle and no business being in the wilderness - just as the first big snow of the season hits. Trapped together in the suffocating closeness of the cabin, Daryl tells himself it’s temporary. He tells himself it doesn't mean anything. He tells himself it's just until the snow melts.

    Summary

    Barely escaping the hands of the dead, Rose finds herself alone on the road. She is only accompanied by her thoughts and, of course, the horse she stole from the veterinary office she previously worked at. During an attempt to find somewhere to lie low for the oncoming winter, she comes across a band of survivors. They take her in, and she'll find that her luck has begun to turn. The only thing she can't figure out is the short haired, bitter man with a crossbow.

    Summary

    Rick had never felt more awful. And that was really saying something given the last week or so. It’d put things in perspective at least, he fought the urge to laugh at whatever universe thought this was the only kind of lesson he would respond to.

    Cos really, he got it. Message noted.
