About this listen

Sometimes the story of an apocalypse isn’t one of tragedy, but one of opportunity....

Dan Slaughter has given up on appearances. With his wife dead and his kids grown, he’s slowly reverting back to the east Tennessee boy he used to be three decades earlier. He quit cutting his hair and started smoking pot. He drinks when he wants to and sings along with the classic songs of his lost youth.

When his childhood friend Carl dies suddenly, Dan agrees to help Carl’s mother with the estate, even when it means traveling across the country to Boise, Idaho. Worse yet, Dan has to fly and that’s no easy task for a paranoid hillbilly not used to following rules.

Once he arrives in Boise, it doesn’t take long for Dan to figure out that there’s a lot more to his friend’s death than he’d been led to believe. He begins to suspect the overdose was actually murder and he can’t let it rest.

Only days after arriving, a mysterious solar event traps Dan in the city, leaving him with no prospect of returning home anytime soon. Rather than panicking, Dan readily accepts the new state of things. For him, the apocalypse is an opportunity. With no law enforcement, his plan to deliver a dose of Tennessee justice in downtown Boise just got a whole lot easier.

Good EMP story

This was a pleasant surprise in the over all genre' of EMP survival stories! looking forward to the next book. Of course it doesn't hurt to hear Kevin's narration. He could make a telephone book interesting. It is getting so any book without Kevin's voice is just slightly disappointing.

I really enjoyed this story. It kept me entertained for hours driving in my truck. The author and narrator make a great combination. Looking forward to more in the series!

Great story

Again another great story. Nice setting it up differently than the other series as well. Like the more unprepared feeling it gives off and the make it right aspect of it. Bring on the next one

Start of another great series

This book (as with all the authors books) has it all. I really enjoyed getting into the story and characters and can't wait to see where the series goes. If you are a fan of Franklin Horton books then you don't want to miss out on this one!

Vintage Horton in his favorite genre.

Loved it. Not as completely comparative as the Mad Mic.... but good enough to satisfy.
