Know More
The world didn’t end with a religious war, or a race war, or an economic collapse. It didn’t end with everyone blowing each other up with nuclear warheads and it didn’t end with a natural disaster. It didn’t end because someone got offended in one of the million petty squabbles that were real, or fake, or imagined.
It ended quietly.
Harlan is visiting his friend in Los Angeles when people start dying. His friend, the neighbors, the entire city falls victim to an unknown disease. Except for Harlan.
Or so he thinks.
And he learns quickly that just because there are other survivors, not all are to be trusted. Finding himself in a world filled with broken spirits and hidden motives, he must navigate through a darkening landscape fraught with violence and despair as he desperately tries to get home to the love of his life, Jessica, and the child she is carrying. Morality becomes blurred as Harlan is forced to commit questionable acts to protect himself and those around him.
A Word from the Author
The world ended. Harlan doesn’t know why it happened, or why he survived. He doesn’t know if his family, his friends, or his girlfriend, who happens to be carrying his child, are alive. All he knows is he has to get home. But with no civilization, no cell phones, no moral accountability… Who do you trust? This book isn’t a typical post-apocalyptic tale. There isn’t anything about prepping, or survival skills, or fixing what broke the world. This is about how thin the line between morality and survival truly is after humanity is stripped away. This is a story about finding a way to cope with grief, and frustration, and betrayal. This is a story about cruelty to friends and misplaced devotion to others. This is a story about life after death.
