Publisher's Summary
A chilling and heartbreaking story of a young girl’s loss and resilience by Peter Heller, the best-selling author of The Dog Stars, The Painter, and The River.
In this riveting tale of looming apocalypse, Pup is living off the grid for the summer with her parents on an island off the coast of Maine, when all three of them face the hardest decisions of their lives. Across the water one night they can see homes burning and hear gunfire. Pup and her parents, with their goat and chickens and garden and their dog, Opey, have no contact with the mainland, except for boat runs into town. When their friends, two women biologists living on a tiny island two miles away, bring them news of the civil unrest up and down the coast and talk of secession, Pup’s father agrees to go into town with the women in their boat to check on things. It’s a fateful decision that will force Pup to make choices she could never have imagined, and that will alter the world for everyone.

Like many well-to-do Upper East Siders over the age of 65, esteemed art appraiser Percival Skinner had planned to spend his retirement living off his savings. But a market correction has left him living below his prior means. One day he’s visited by a dapper fixer in search of a famous work by a Renaissance master. Skinner knows the work well: The original was owned by his ancestor, and was passed down through his family over the generations. If, as an intermediary, he can coordinate a sale, a small fortune awaits. Problem is, he might not be the only one on the make.

Hig survived the flu that killed everyone he knows. His wife is gone, his friends are dead, he lives in the hangar of a small abandoned airport with his dog, his only neighbor a gun-toting misanthrope. In his 1956 Cessna, Hig flies the perimeter of the airfield or sneaks off to the mountains to fish and to pretend that things are the way they used to be. But when a random transmission somehow beams through his radio, the voice ignites a hope deep inside him that a better life exists beyond the airport.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

This is promoted as a short story but it ends with no ending! Will it become a serial? I’d prefer to listen to it as a book with chapters! If it ends here, it is a pleasant waste of time.

The plot was good, the narrarator incredible but I felt like I just listened to the first two or three chapters of an unfinished book. A book that I was really enjoying which overall made the whole thing disappointing.

Self-sufficiency is the theme, applies to reader
This is incredibly well-written. In less than two hours, I came to care deeply about all the people in the book, particularly the girl who is the central character. She herself tells us that her parents valued self-sufficiency above all, and that she must be happy in her own company and able to take care of herself. Much as I think endings which tie it all up are great, the whole point of this book is the uncertainty of the times. These two themes lead directly to the last scene—and the reason this story will play on in your imagination long after you can’t remember a detail of all those pleasant, neatly wrapped up quasi-romances you wasted your time on. This story stands on its on, if you are half as tough as the main character. I know I will keep thinking about it for months...way more substance than most Audible Originals.
I do agree with others who say that the narrator’s style does not reflect the urgency of the second half of the story, which is why I gave the performance fewer stars.

What? Where's the ending?
Great story. Draws you in. You encounter various characters and but in all but one instance (the unlucky Bob) the story literally stops dead... leaving you with absolutely zero conclusion as to what has, hasn't or will happen to the characters you've been introduced to.
Conclusion? What a waste of my time. Disappointed in the extreme. Hint to author: Please finish your short story next time! 🙏🏻

Good little story but..
I actually really did like this story, told by the young daughter of the family. Intriguing tale and was really getting into it.. but for me and this is only personal, I didn’t like the end. But I got it on a freebie, so it was ok although I do know I will not listen again as I do some other audiobooks. But this is very subjective to me, give it a go.
