Produktbeschreibung

Where do you go when your world comes to an end?

When a tribe of reindeer herders in the northern Mongolian Steppe unearth a body buried in the melting permafrost, a mysterious and virulent virus is unleashed. Government agencies scramble to find a cure for the disease that is killing people at an unprecedented rate.

Unaware of the impending disaster, Ethan and Rina Hampton purchase their first home in Silver Spring, Maryland that has the added bonus of a bomb shelter to serve as Ethan's man cave. As the virus rapidly spreads beyond the borders of Asia, it becomes obvious there is no cure. It soon appears in their state, and the bomb shelter offers a safe haven. But at what cost?

Two months later, they emerge from the shelter to a world forever changed. Ninety-five percent of the world's population has succumbed, and everything taken for granted in the life before the pandemic is gone. To escape the devastation in the city, the couple travels to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia and take up residence in Ethan's family vacation home. There are a few survivors, and together they form a new community and rename the town New Hope. But the problems from the past arrive in the person of a fundamentalist preacher who causes division among the population.

How will a group of disparate people react when faced with odds that seem to be insurmountable? Will they splinter into tribes? How will they decide on a system of government? Will they even want a government? What do they have at their disposal to create a new world?

Combining action, adventure, and the emergence of psychic skills, it's a tale of the angst of losing everything and the challenges presented when society disintegrates.

"A nail-biter, a fierce and occasionally violent drama, mixed with the heartfelt humanity of New Hope's inhabitants. You care about them and want them to survive, as much as you fear and are repelled by the forces set against them. It's a classic theme, yet one told with a new perspective. A high recommend." Lorraine Devon Wilke, Author of The Alchemy of Noise and the upcoming novel Chick Singer ★★★★★

"The interplay of emotions among the characters is superbly described. Their conflict is believably real. Before our world was visited with the CORONA19 pandemic, this might have seemed a farfetched science fiction thriller. Now, it seems more like a manual for survival." Verified purchase ★★★★★

"I could hardly put the book down it was so compelling. I felt the main characters joys and fears, it felt so real. At times a "sit on the edge of your seat" kind of book." Verified purchase ★★★★★

Autorenporträt

A woman always in search of experience, Ann Werner has sampled a wide range of occupations: waitress, radio advertising sales, copywriter, voiceover work, cemetery plot sales (she thought it was a dead-end job), event coordinator, packaging design, and wine consultant, to name just a few. She also worked as a professional actor, best known for her portrayal of Eliana, maid to the evil Dimera family on the NBC daytime drama Days of Our Lives. An avid reader, she always had a passion for writing and released her first novel THE PEOPLE NEXT DOOR in 2000. Since then she has been busy on her other projects, which include two non-fiction books she compiled with daughter and business partner, Kimberley A. Johnson: THE VIRGIN DIARIES and AIN'T NO SUNSHINE: MEN REVEAL THE PAIN OF HEARTBREAK. In the past several years, Ann also penned three other novels: DREAMS AND NIGHTMARES, CRAZY and COOPER'S GROVE as well as two short stories: THE CHEMTRAIL CONSPIRACY and A VIEW FROM THE MEADOW. Her most recent novel, THE MELT (Book One of the After the Apocalypse), includes the first two chapters of Book Two of the series in her upcoming release, THE AUGURS. She is busy at work on her next novel.
