The cure could save them all . . . if it doesn’t kill her first.
After witnessing the brutal collapse of the Split, Kota and her fellow survivors must venture beyond their protected community in South Carolina and into territories infested with the undead. Hollow with the loss of her family and home, Kota keeps moving forward with one mission: get her little sister to the Sanctuary in Maine, a safe haven where they’re working on a cure for the zombie virus.
But admission demands a sacrifice.
Governed by the ruthless ex-president, the Sanctuary requires that each party seeking shelter behind its impenetrable walls choose one of their own for human testing. If it means both saving her sister and taking down the man in charge, Kota is willing to jeopardize her life.
Except the road north is more vicious than expected. Kota and her friends travel through settlements full of fickle leaders, sadistic liars, and relentless savages, discovering just how far some survivors have gone to stay alive. As tensions build and more lives are lost, Kota realizes the only thing more dangerous than the dead is the living.
By the time Kota finally reaches the utopian colony, she faces a world-altering question: Is humanity worth dying for?
The Sanctuary is the gripping finale to the Split duology. Fans of dystopian settings, high-stakes action, and a hint of romance will devour this sequel.

Praise for The Split
“What a debut! The Split is the high stakes, emotionally charged novel I’ve been waiting for. From page one, I couldn’t turn away. With precise prose, Gigi Nally strikes the balance between well-paced action and the most tender of moments in this thrilling southern hellscape. I came for the dystopia but stayed for Kota, one of the best protagonists I can remember reading in a long time. I can’t wait to read whatever Nally writes next.”
—Penny Zang, author of Doll Parts
The Split
Book 1 of the duology | AVAILABLE NOW
One girl. Two rival factions. And a captor she can't ignore.
Kota is a scrappy 21-year-old who would do anything to keep her family safe—including the dangerous job of running goods across zombie-infested South Carolina. But when she’s kidnapped in a crumbling truce between two hostile settlements, she quickly finds herself as a political pawn in a brewing war that threatens the future of humanity itself.
A single wall divides Kota’s seemingly prosperous community from the anarchists on the other side. But when Jasper—Kota’s cunning and dangerously alluring captor—unearths shocking truths about her home, it will throw everything she believes into question…
She expected Jasper to kill her. But now their fates are intertwined.
Forced to team up with the enemy settlement, Kota plunges into a shadowy world of secrets, subterfuge, and political machinations—all while fighting her growing attraction to Jasper. As tensions spiral toward war, Kota must decide where she stands.
Perfect for readers who love dystopian worlds, slow-burn romance, and high-stakes action.
The Split is Gigi Nally’s first novel. It is available as of March 3rd, 2026!
