Publisher's summary

After the unthinkable, would you know what to do?

With a four-legged companion and no food in the pantry, Grant Walton faces an uphill battle. His wife is still missing; downtown is a smoldering crater; and radiation is killing more people every day. Torn between searching for his wife and gearing up for what's sure to come, Grant is forced to put more than his morals to the test.

A nuclear attack wounds long after the explosion.

Leah Walton escaped a nuclear bomb that flattened her hospital and vaporized her friends. Now she's racing to find her husband miles away. When her borrowed car ends up in a twisted, smoking heap, she wakes up injured and alone. She'll have to rely on the kindness of strangers to survive and hope none of them kill her in the process.

Could you drop everything to save yourself?

While Grant and Leah struggle to stay alive, the United States falls deeper into chaos. Bombs destroyed cities, but mankind will rip the country apart. Can Grant find his wife in a city of six million people? Can Leah survive until he does?

The attack is only the beginning.

Escape the Fall is book two in Nuclear Survival: Southern Grit, a post-apocalyptic thriller series, following ordinary people struggling to survive after a nuclear attack on the Unites States plunges the nation into chaos.

Great struggle for survival.

The back and forth between stories keeps you wondering what will happen next with the other character and keeps you invested. The scenes are played out almost exactly how I would imagine the world being in an event like this. My only gripe with the performance is the female narrators imitation of a male voice, great narrator overall but the male voices sound like a teenage boy teetering between puberty. That doesn’t whatsoever take away from the great story though.

Love and care for others in a time of crisis.

These two share their strength with others and find good people for their efforts. The true effects of the aftermath have just started, some are still in denial. This couple will survive!

The overwhelming Realistic possibility

Liked it all especially the addition of the dog.
The only complaint would be I think they should address getting sustenance more

Great story for a SHORT STORY!

This is a great book and young teen friendly so I have recommended it to my 12 yr old. I feel it should be at LEAST 2x longer per book. These books are only 4 hours. Please don’t think I’m bashing on the book as I do like them and have purchased the first 3. (Just finished book 2) BUT if I looked first and saw they were only 4 hours I likely would Not have purchased in the first place.. for a younger crowd they are good quick books and I don’t have any complain

Easy listen but dumb at times

So this book just like the previous one is an easy read. Unlike the first book this one is so dumb at times… It gave me a headache for making me roll my eyes so hard. I had to stop and write this review.
