Paradise Lost

A Post-Apocalyptic EMP Survival Thriller (Dark Paradise, Book 1)

De: Jack Hunt

Narrado por: Miles Meili

When an EMP cripples America, an undercover FBI agent is trapped inside Florida’s largest retirement community with the men he was sent to take down.

John Turner believes he has the perfect assignment: slip into The Villages, a sprawling paradise of 150,000 retirees, settle in with his wife, earn the trust of a few unsuspecting neighbors, and quietly build a case against a crew of military veterans tied to a $100 million heist. Three weeks into his cover, the sky flashes white and the grid collapses.

Cars die on the roads. Hospitals go dark. Communication stops. The sun-soaked community of golf carts, lakes, and town squares locks down like a fortress with no power, no law, and no outside contact.

Chaos follows. Water pressure fails. Medicine vanishes. Neighbors turn on neighbors. And the very men John was sent to take down rise quickly in the power vacuum—calm, capable, and ready to lead while everyone else panics.

The most dangerous one? John is starting to admire him.

Now John’s mission becomes a deadly trap. His targets are watching him. A violent neighbor is hunting his family. His daughter is keeping secrets of her own. His wife is asking questions he can’t answer. And the charismatic criminal he came to destroy may be the only man keeping the community from tearing itself apart.

As civilization collapses, John must protect his family, maintain his cover, and decide whether the mission still matters in a world without law. Because when society falls, the real danger isn’t the disaster. It’s the people you thought you knew.

PARADISE LOST is the explosive first audiobook in the Dark Paradise series, a pulse-pounding thriller of survival, deception, and the darkness that emerges when civilization falls.
