In the aftermath of an EMP that plunges the world into darkness, Susan will do anything to protect her younger brother, Ronnie. Battling through plane wreckage and chaos, their only hope lies in reaching a remote family cabin, but danger lurks at every turn. When they join forces with a former soldier on his own desperate search, the stakes rise as ruthless militias and a mysterious “safe haven” threaten everything. As trust fades and a dark truth comes to light, Susan must fight not just to survive, but to lead.
Sometimes I want to read a book and have an actual ending and not a series. The author could easily create a continuation but this story ends without having to wait for closure. Not sure this had a prepper feel to me (the lead character was described as a survivalist and wanted to see more of this knowledge base) but it was definitely an EMP centered storyline and the main plot of the book was realistic. That's important to me when I complete a book in this genre.
This was a good easy read. Loved the characters and the message oh hope throughout. It shows that even in dark times good concurs evil and that there is something worth fighting for.
