Safety Planning

A father's final warning. When a catastrophic attack on the nation plunges the world into chaos, civilization collapses overnight. Amidst the anarchy, New York thrift store owner Erika Blake stumbles upon a leather-bound survival guide—The Safety Plan. Written by a father to his estranged son, Michael Shepherd, it outlines a path to safety, but at a cost. To escape the disaster, Erika must choose: follow the journal’s coordinates to a remote estate in Maine or track down its intended recipient—the only man who may hold the key to her survival.

A final stand. A gathering storm. Freedom’s last breath. The grid is down. America is splintering. And the real invasion has just begun. On Mount Desert Island, Michael Shepherd fights to hold the line as alliances fracture. Boone’s grip over Bar Harbor tightens. The Sovereign Sons regroup in the hills. And somewhere in the shadows, Cole Garrison waits, wielding truth as his weapon. Far to the west, Erika Blake leads a high-risk mission to Cold Ridge, a secret uplink base buried in the Vermont mountains.

A nation in ruins. A battle for survival. No one is safe. The world has collapsed, and danger lurks at every turn. Escaping the chaos of New York, Erika Blake, her son Max, and Michael Shepherd sail into the unknown. But their fight for survival is far from over. Stranded on a lawless island off the coast, they must navigate ruthless enforcers, dwindling resources, and a community ruled by fear. With Michael gravely injured and enemies closing in, their only hope lies in outmaneuvering those who would see them dead.

A fractured nation. A fractured legacy. The island will decide who survives. Two weeks after an attack cripples the United States, Michael Shepherd, Erika Blake, and her son Max arrive on the rugged shores of Mount Desert Island, Maine. But the peace they hoped for is a distant dream. The island is torn, now divided by fear, rules, and rising factions. Still reeling from the truth of his bloodline, Michael struggles to understand what his name means to the people he’s come to protect, and what it may cost them all.
