About this listen
When an EMP plunges the United States into darkness, Mark Caldwell must lead his wife, Sarah, out of a collapsing city where lawlessness reigns, but their daughter, Hope, is missing, and finding her becomes his first priority.
With no power, no communication, and danger at every turn, survival becomes a desperate struggle against both ruthless survivors and the chaos of a society unraveling. Their only hope lies in a cryptic promise from Mark’s estranged brother, Jimmy, a prepper with a hidden, off-the-grid homestead.

Story
Frank has read all the books about the end of the world . . . but books can't pull the trigger. He's tried to keep the peace. He's tried to talk his way out of tight spots. And yet he still ended up with a body count fit for a warlord. And it's only getting worse. Frank's problem, and the problem of everyone on Clownfish Cove, is that words can't fill the stomachs of the hungry city around them. The area controlled by the neighborhood watch is the only place not tearing itself to shreds. It is the only place with food, fresh water, and a bit of hope.

Story
It’s been a week without power. No phones. No computers. Nothing. Whatever shred of humanity is left in people is slowly dwindling away. Gangs are forming, people are starving, and the whole country is in a free-for-all. Accompanied by his neighbor, Nelson, Mike leaves Pittsburgh and heads to his family’s cabin in Ohio. For Mike, the only thing worse than not making it to the cabin is the fear of his family not being there when he does.
