Zero Percent: An Economic Collapse Survival Thriller

by Reliable Prepper, Virtual Voice (Narrator)

The banks didn't crash. They just... closed. "Temporarily." And a Tennessee county woke up to learn that every dollar it had ever saved was a promise nobody was keeping anymore.Marcus Bell runs a wholesale supply store the old way — real goods, deep stock, and a ledger he's kept honest for thirty years. When the dollar dies in a week of bank holidays and frozen cards, Marcus's warehouse becomes the most valuable building in the county... and his ledger becomes something he never the county's new money.

But money is trust with a ledger — and there are men in every county who'd rather own the trust than earn it. As scrip wars, favor-banks, and federal "emergency measures" close in, Marcus and a sharp-eyed bookkeeper named Tanya fight the only way honest people open books, posted prices, and arithmetic everyone can check.

A hard-realism collapse novel about what actually becomes money when money dies — told through one county that refused to let the answer be fear.

Includes "What's Real in This Book" — a plain-language appendix on bank holidays, hyperinflation's victim order, what historically becomes money, and the two weeks of cash worth holding.
