Publisher's summary

Cyber Armageddon has come. America will not survive!

Cyber-security analyst Kate McCarthy knows something ominous is about to happen in the US banking system. She has a place to go if things get hectic, but it’s far from the perfect retreat.

When a new breed of computer virus takes down America’s financial network, chaos and violence erupt. Access to cash disappears and credit cards become worthless. Desperate consumers are left with no means to purchase food, fuel, and basic necessities. Society melts down instantly and the threat of starvation brings out the absolute worst humanity has to offer.

In the midst of the mayhem, Kate will face a post-apocalyptic nightmare that she never could have imagined. Her only reward for survival is to live another day in the gruesome new reality which has eradicated the world she once knew.

As with all works by Mark Goodwin, this book contains no profanity and no embarrassing sex scenes. However, if you're offended by conservative principles and references to Scripture, this book might not be for you.

Great book worth a listen.

It truly is a Post-Apocalyptic Techno-Thriller. I really enjoyed this book and Stacey Glemboski did an amazing job bringing it to life. This is an exciting listen that you won’t be able to put down. You won’t be disappointed. Mark Goodwin is an amazing author and has hit another one out of the park. Can’t wait for the next book and have been missing your podcasts. Thanks for the profanity free entertainment. Keep the books coming.

luck

I'm not this luck, I would love to be able to afford what they are able to. short notice prepping isn't in the cards for most of us.

Good Listening!

good book to listen to. somewhat left you wondering certain transitions. could have been more coherent. great suspense.

Its a Bible book

Refreshing to read a clean book that references verses so naturally. it didn't feel force at all to me. I didn't know anything like this was out there. Thank you!

COULD THIS BE,,,,,,,

could this be a look into days to come? mark has another great series in the making. the story and the narrator will pull you into the book as though you are there and makes it hard to stop listening. I am not a religious man but with all his books he gets you to open up and think of things from a different view. keep up the good work and can't wait till the next book.

Best Yet

This book is the perfect into into preparedness. I've listened to many such novels and most of them are overly tactical or has an under developed story line. This is perfect for an intro. Well done.

Solid story...

Solid story. Pulls you in. Characters are relatable as are the majority of the interactions.

Let's hope our society doesn't spiral down to this level.

Can't wait for the next book.

Dream Come True

I had almost given up the idea of finding a book not loaded with profanity...and then I found this book! I would have been pleased for that by itself! But then I heard Scriptures being read from the New King James Bible and all I could think was I couldn't wait until this book was over so I could see if this author wrote more of the same!
And oh yeah, a book that has disaster prep advice on top of the other goodies and I know I am a new fan!

Keep em coming!

Great Start to another Awesome series by Mark!!

Fantastic book on possibly the most likely scenario for a meltdown in today's world. So glad to see Stacey narratoring this, she's fantastic. Being a Christian, I love Mark's approach to spreading the gospel in a setting that many of the unprepared are likely to find themselves in. Keep it up mark!!!

Great Book

Another great storyline filled knowledge, motuvation aa well as entertainment. Enjoy the story as you oick up tons of information.
