Jessica had been bicycling hard for two hours in a desperate attempt to be with her boyfriend. Her father had basically forbidden any further contact. It was bad enough to drive through this lawless countryside in a vintage car; alone, on a bicycle. Exhausted, she laid down on the side of the road and made peace with the Lord. An EMP blast has littered most roads in the eastern U.S. with stalled cars, their modern, computer-based ignitions fried beyond repair. Ben Randal had formed a survival collaboration with his neighbors. They had to venture out for food, water, and medicines while trying to avoid local gangs. Local governments were operating with skeleton crews at best. Officer Ryan was one of the few Massachusetts State Police officers who had transportation and was able to remain at his post. As a member of Ben's collaborative, he coordinated the formation of a new collaborative.

Autorenporträt
Michael Kravitz is an emerging author who lives in southern New England. He was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania. He moved to a residential farming community in the 1950s. This helped develop a sense of self-sufficiency and a strong work ethic. This gave him the driving force that developed Ben Randal's character. He had a lifetime of experiences, enduring many ups and downs. He published his first book, Boston Darkens, and this second book is a sequel, a continuing story of the struggles of Ben Randal and his family. After high school, Michael Kravitz went to the University of Massachusetts, where he received his bachelor of science degree. He also has done some postgraduate studies at Suffolk University and Boston University. Soon after college, he worked as an engineer at Johnson & Johnson. Back in the late 60s, during the Vietnam era, instead of opting for a draft exemption, he did a stint in the US Army. After serving in the US Army, he came home and went for a ride with his grandmother. With his college degree and an honorable discharge, he sought employment. Visiting six different firms that day, he had four offers for employment. He elected to work for Draper Bros., in Canton, Massachusetts. Throughout his life, he attempted many different activities. He played tennis, darts, bowling, skiing, and even the clarinet in symphonic bands. He also worked on the weekends in his father's business. His father owned a reupholstering and window treatments shop. They did custom work for decorators and special clients. When his father was diagnosed with cancer, he left his engineering job to keep the business going. Days soon turned to months and years. During those years, he had done extensive traveling not as a tourist but usually alone and on trains. Some of the countries he visited include Holland, Germany, Sweden, Italy, Tanzania, Austria, Mexico, Canada, England and the Philippines.
