The Last Ride

Monica Kubesa

What starts as a carefree afternoon at a carnival ends with the world going silent.‎

Riley and her friends wake to a place they barely recognise—empty streets, ‎ruined buildings, a sky that feels wrong. Phones don’t work. Time has moved ‎forward decades. And everyone else is gone.‎

Except Liam.‎

Riley’s brother has survived alone for years, turning their childhood home into a ‎fragile stronghold while searching for answers. He believes the truth lies at ‎Fermilab, where an experiment may have torn a hole in time itself.‎

As the group struggles to adapt to a broken future, they must face what happened ‎to the world and what might still be out there. Because if the breach opened once, ‎it can open again. And next time, they may not be the only ones who come ‎through.‎

Survival isn’t just about staying alive.‎

It’s about deciding what and who you’re willing to protect.‎

Monica Kubesa

Monica Kubesa was born in Norway, raised across borders, and now lives in Florida with her husband, two daughters, and a house that’s never short on opinions. Though she’s a devoted fan of crime thrillers and cinematic storytelling, her debut novel took a surprising turn into science fiction. When she’s not writing, she’s navigating family life, cycling, and plot twists—both real and imagined. The Last Ride is her first novel.
