Walter Regin sits alone in his empty house, nursing a cigarette and replaying the fight that drove his wife and son away. The silence is suffocating. The regret, unbearable.

Then, the emergency alert shatters everything.

Nuclear war has begun. Impact in 90 minutes.

Suddenly, the petty arguments don’t matter. The stubborn pride that kept him from calling means nothing. All Walter wants—all he needs—is to hear their voices one last time. To tell his wife he’s sorry. To tell his son he loves him.

But the lines are jammed. The clock is ticking. And as panic spreads through the streets outside, Walter must confront a devastating question: What do you do when the world is ending and you can’t reach the people who matter most?

In this gripping tale of love, regret, and desperate hope against an impossible deadline, The Last Cigarette asks whether redemption is possible when time itself has run out.
