Family comes first, and heâll do whatever it takes to protect his from the looming storm.
Even before becoming a husband and father, safety had been Shane McDonaldâs priority for most of his 45 years. As a nuclear engineer, itâs his responsibility to keep the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant functioning at optimum levels to avoid what protesters fear most: a meltdown.
But when a coronal mass ejection from the sun wipes out power across the globe, stopping a nuclear chain reaction is no longer his primary concern. Now, Shane must trek across hundreds of miles to ensure the safety of his loved ones in a world rapidly disintegrating into lawlessness. Yet, with few functioning automobiles and a blind teenage daughter to protect, itâll require careful planning to reach his prepper mother-in-lawâs and reunite with his family.
His wife has her hands full, as well. When her brotherâs chemo drip suddenly stops working and her son gets stuck in the hospital elevator, all Jodi McDonald wants is the security of her husbandâs steady presence. But with a weakened brother and inexperienced son to look after, Jodi must remain strong amid the chaos and help guide them to her motherâs.
However, even the best laid plans go awry as the miles stretch out between them. Supply thefts run rampant. Those who have necessities prey on those who donât. Minds broken by hardship kill on sight. But the fatal mistake comes when thugs threaten the McDonaldâs little girl.
Shane must find the strength to do the unthinkable...or watch his family suffer the consequences.
Warning: This novel contains violence, profanity, substance abuse, and scenes with referenced sexual violence.
