About this listen
The lights go out. Cars stall. Communications fail. Cities descend into chaos.
An EMP attack leaves single-father Will Fontenot and his son stranded in Houston, Texas. It's an all-out battle for survival.
Wracked with guilt and struggling with PTSD from the accident that took his wife's life, he'll do whatever it takes to get his son out of the city. But an encounter with two injured women hurls them into a deadly game of cat and mouse and puts all their lives at risk.
It's a race against time as the plot to bring America to her knees unfolds in this fast-paced post-apocalyptic EMP-survival thriller.

Story
With a credible threat to the US and a plane stuck on the tarmac, Grant Walton is 30 seconds from full-blown panic mode. He's the only one in the airport who knows the truth. When the power goes out, he can't waste another second. It's the beginning of the end and every man for himself. Leah Walton is wrapping up a 12-hour shift as a nurse in the heart of the city. When the power goes out, the hospital operates on crisis mode. She can't stop to breathe, let alone check her messages. When she finally listens to her husband's frantic calls, she's faced with an impossible choice: leave or die trying.

Solid start to this series!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
However, once I realized that I could skip 15 seconds ahead every now and then to move past the worst of this poor guy's moments self recrimination, I finally began to enjoy the book. And, I'm happy to report that these moments do become less and less frequent as the book, and especially the series, continues.
Bottom line: you can get away with skipping ahead 10 or 15 seconds (the amount of time is configurable in the Audible player settings) every now and then during the first few chapters to move past the frequent bouts of self loathing. Once the story starts to pick up the pace, I think you'll find it easier to listen to and well worth your efforts.
