THE LAST PLACE

Danby and Nathan plan to escape the mainland for an island retreat where they think they can start again. They take Evan with them, only to discover that Evan isn't Evan, he's Jack. Danby has to face a horrible truth: is the only way to be finally rid of Jack to kill Evan?

In the aftermath of the battle for Samsara, Jack survives as a seemingly unstoppable army. Danby and Nathan manage to escape his radius but not each other’s recriminations. After stumbling upon a hidden historic village, the frustrated friends are forced into a fragile alliance with other survivors who’ve made the place their refuge. But there’s no peace for Danby who’s haunted by the blood on her hands and the horrific fate she decided for her little brother Evan. While Nathan and his allies make the most of their relative safety, Danby obsessively prepares to make Jack’s army pay for what it did to her and her loved ones. When Revivee minds show her that his forces are edging closer to their hideout, she launches a savage attack to exact vengeance and allow Nathan and his friends to enact their escape. It’s only a discovery in the aftermath of an ambush that makes Danby realise there is still hope -- of reclaiming her soul, of reconnecting with those she’s lost, of reaching the last place that’s truly safe from Jack and the effects of The Snap. But Danby embracing her humanity is just the slip Jack’s been waiting for. With his massive army surrounding their base, the scene is set for a final showdown...
