The thrilling story of teenagers struggling for survival as the modern world collapses around them into darkness Massive solar flares bombard the Earth. An intense electromagnetic pulse brings down America's power grid. The age of electronics is officially over. One minute before this chaos ensued, sixteen year-old Michael Roberts was in his truck reluctantly driving to the airport to pick up his parents. Now he finds himself at the epicenter of the pandemonium that follows. With his parents' plane lost, Michael is desperate to figure out how to escape from the deadly anarchy engulfing downtown New Orleans. By the time darkness falls over the country, Michael has fought his way back home to find his younger sister, Lisa, and they escape the approaching violence of looters into the back woods of the American South. Drawing on years of survivalist training with their Army Ranger father, Michael and Lisa begin living off the land, but soon discover that they're not alone in these swamps. As warring factions fight for lifesaving supplies, Michael joins other teenagers who like himself are desperately trying to survive without their families and old friends. Michael must choose his allies...and his enemies. Can these new friends be trusted? Are his parents alive? What are the true intentions of the mysterious knife-throwing girl, who talks to no one but Michael? Set in a world lit only by fire, this dystopian thriller by a successful author of survivalist guides is filled with impossible decisions, unexpected romance, and the terrifying consequences of a disaster that could truly happen any day.
