The Long Fall of Night
“I have to say I really wished I hadn't started reading this book for two reasons. 1st reason: This book was so crazy amazingly good that I couldn't stop reading it…. 2nd reason: This book is scary, because everything in this story could happen.”— Reader Review
In a flash, everything changes.
When NYU student Asher Caine’s uncle warns him something big is coming, he has no idea it will be so devastating. Years of prepping could never have readied him for this.
His plan: get his sister and nephew to the safety of the West Coast—whatever it takes.
The darkness is fat with potential. For good or evil? Time will tell.
Elliot Davenport has never done a spontaneous thing in his life. But he isn’t about to let Ash, his Chem-lab partner, leave him to fend for himself.
Ash is mysterious, aloof, and completely out of Elliot’s league. When the lights go out, Ash’s capability is more than hot—it’s an anchor. Elliot must go with him or risk his safety. His infatuation takes a backseat when the situation’s gravity sets in—the eastern 2/3 of the United States is dark, and nothing is as it was.
What happens when, in a split second, all the rules change?
200 million people have no access to sustainable food and water, let alone coffee and the internet. It's the worst humanitarian crisis the Western world has ever seen. The US Government calls the military to step in. The entire military.
The soldiers of Team Shockwave are ordered to evacuate civilians to refugee camps for safety. After that, they're to patrol a new border between US East and US West. Shockwave are on the front lines and the fate of a nation rests on their shoulders.
