Five months after the life-changing apocalyptic event, Mark craves normal activities. Having battled militias, gangs and psycho killers, he'd just like to do something that reminds him of the world of his past.What could be more relaxing and normal than a fishing trip?With his two kids, Mark settles in for a peaceful day of fishing on Lake Erie. The presence of a pirate navy controlling the waters alters their plans. Fleeing a small armada of speed boats, they hide on shore, but witness the shooting of a man and the capture of a woman and girl.With the kids going for backup, Mark takes the wounded man for medical help, then rashly attempts to rescue the woman and girl. Forming an alliance with a strange tribe living on the shores, he manages to free the girl but gets captured himself, and is transferred to a freighter the pirates use as a floating base.Returning with reinforcements, Bobby and Becca must rescue their father before the captain executes him.
People coming together to save lives and build communities isn’t easy,seems like there is always someone wanting what one has and they don’t mind killing to get it. Men seem to be in excess and women are taken,I do love that there are women that are as strong as the men and do fight back.
Nothing,even a fishing trip,is normal after the end of the world.Mark takes the kids fishing and lands in a world of trouble...as usual.It was a good book!Jack de Golia was a really good narrator.I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.'
