About this listen
The fires of today…
kindle the ashes of tomorrow…
where survival is never guaranteed.
In the tumultuous life of Siena Lang, each passing day morphs into an arduous battle. A wretched job, a paltry salary, and the haunting void left by the loss of her parents converge into a catastrophe that defines her existence. The belief that things couldn't possibly worsen shatter when her younger brother, Max, calls her in a panic.
Then the unthinkable happens—the grid mysteriously fails, plunging the nation into a lockdown, cutting off all communication and means of travel.
As disaster stirs, Ryan Parker finds himself in dire straits as he is fired once again. Grappling with unemployment, he faces an even more ominous threat—a looming debt to a relentless loan shark who is calling in all payments. Desperate to evade his pursuers, Ryan seeks refuge in the solitude of the Blue Ridge Mountains, hoping to lie low for a few days. In a twist of fate, he stumbles upon a ghost from his past that threatens the course of his future.
Survival is now a race against time. Will Siena endure the challenges long enough to reach and save Max? Will Ryan outrun his pursuers long enough to help an old friend? The answer remains uncertain in a world gripped by chaos.
Broken Horizons is a post-apocalyptic survival thriller featuring flawed characters faced with surviving a national disaster. A grid-down series perfect for fans of Kyla Stone, Bobby Akart, Jack Hunt, and Ryan Schow.

Frank has read all the books about the end of the world . . . but books can't pull the trigger. He's tried to keep the peace. He's tried to talk his way out of tight spots. And yet he still ended up with a body count fit for a warlord. And it's only getting worse. Frank's problem, and the problem of everyone on Clownfish Cove, is that words can't fill the stomachs of the hungry city around them. The area controlled by the neighborhood watch is the only place not tearing itself to shreds. It is the only place with food, fresh water, and a bit of hope.

Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.
