Disaster Planning

When the power goes out, most people assume it will come back on soon. But sometimes it doesn't. Storms knock out entire regions for days. Wildfires force sudden evacuations. Floodwaters erase roads overnight. Highways gridlock as thousands try to escape at once. These aren't rare events. They happen every year.

A nation in ruins. A battle for survival. No one is safe. The world has collapsed, and danger lurks at every turn.

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.
