Edge of Collapse

Midwinter, and an electromagnetic pulse knocks out the American power grid. Cars die, phones go silent, and nobody can summon help. Across the country, order breaks down within hours.

For Hannah Sheridan, the blackout is a rescue. She has spent five years held by a sadistic psychopath, and the pulse frees the lock on her underground cell. She climbs out injured but still determined, into a frozen wilderness with only the clothes she is wearing.

Liam Coleman is a reclusive Spec Ops soldier who thought he had planned for any disaster. The pulse takes everything he cared about in seconds, and he has nowhere left to go. His path and Hannah's lead toward the same place: rural Michigan, two hundred freezing miles away.

The cold is only one danger. Other survivors are growing desperate, and Hannah's captor has no intention of letting her go. This is a survival thriller set during a national collapse, with a bleak, tense mood and a long trek as its backbone. It also looks at how ordinary people protect their homes and families when society falls apart around them.
