Pursuit

They had been on their tail for days now, never too far away. Still, they pressed onwards, even as they knew it was hopeless...because some things were worse than death. In the back of their minds, he and his wife knew there was no way they could outrun them, not forever. Still, desperate for every last second spent together, they clung to the time they had remaining. In this world, it was survival of the fittest. And despite their best attempts, they were no longer top dog. All things must come to an end, good or bad - even humanity. All they had left were their choices. So when the Pursuit draws to its merciful close, one question remains -- what will they decide? Praise for Pursuit**:** "Thrilling." - Author Langford Shepherd, ????
