Countdown to Doomsday: JL's Date with Destiny

by Chuck Waldron

By 2035, the world will be a dangerous place. When the four horsemen, pestilence, famine, war and death, come riding in, will JL witness the end of days or a witness a hopeful future?

After many tomorrows, JL is on the run in a dystopian, authoritarian world. Facing a “Death Notice,” he must rely on wits to survive and a guide to lead them through uncharted territory. 69, he has more than one disadvantage. He has an arthritic hip. JL always carries a rescue inhaler for emergencies, and he was laughably out of shape. He has one trick up his sleeve, and it is significant. His IQ was off the charts, and he knew how to use analog skills to outwit the digital traps.
His superpower? He has the tenaciousness of a Pit Bull

About the author

Chuck Waldron is the author of four riveting mystery, thriller and suspense novels and more than fifty short stories. Inspired by his grandfather’s tales of the Ozark Mountains and local caves rumored to be havens for notorious gangsters, Waldron was destined to write about crime and the human condition. Those childhood legends ignited his imagination and filled his head with unforgettable characters, surprising plots and a keen interest in supernatural and historical subplots.

With literary roots planted in the American Midwest and South, and enriched by many years living in the fertile cultural soil of metropolitan Ontario, Waldron now resides on Florida’s fabled Treasure Coast with his wife, Suzanne. While keeping an eye out for hurricanes, alligators, and the occasional Burmese python, visitors will find Waldron busy writing his next crime thriller.
