The Dog Stars by Peter Heller
In a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by a deadly flu pandemic, a pilot named Hig clings to survival and hope in a small Colorado airfield, accompanied by his loyal dog, Jasper, and a gruff neighbor, Bangley. Haunted by memories of his lost wife and the life that once was, Hig finds solace in flying his old Cessna, patrolling the perimeter for threats. When a mysterious radio transmission hints at other survivors, Hig embarks on a perilous journey beyond his known boundaries, seeking connection and redemption in a desolate landscape where humanity's remnants grapple with despair and the enduring quest for meaning.
