Deni Branning has plans. Doesn’t every young person? She’s ready to break from her family, get married, and start a life of her own design.

 

Then it all changes.

 

Everything stops, goes out, or quits. Everything. Cars, planes, watches, lights, cameras, cell phones, automatic doors, elevators. Everything.

 

Is it a terrorist attack? Is it local—or global? There’s no way to tell because there’s no way to get news. Or food. Or water. There’s not even an easy way to get home.

 

What happens to your plans? Your career in broadcasting? Your wedding? What happens to those plans when you’re forced back to the basics? When your world shrinks to how far you can walk in a day and whatever resources you can dream up for dinner?

 

Neighbors, many of them strangers, must pull together in order to survive. Learning to share those resources, to do without—to trust one another—is hard.

 

Even harder when one of them is a killer.

 

Terri Blackstock has created a gripping, thought-provoking story. You will be engaged in this one from the very beginning, comparing yourself, your family, your neighborhood—and wondering, “What if?”
