Shattered Dusk

Kidnapped and locked away in a forgotten Cold War bunker, Maggie must rely on her wits to survive an unstable captor while her mother mounts a desperate search. With critical intelligence in hand, Tom races back to a fractured United States, while Kevin is forced into a deadly alliance that could cost him his humanity in book 4 of FALLING SHADOWS.

From 4.5-million-copy bestselling author Mike Kraus and Justin Bell comes a brand-new Falling Shadows.

On the 4th of July, millions of Americans gather to celebrate, waiting for familiar shows to paint the night sky. Instead, thousands of commercial drones activate with a deadly new purpose, plummeting into crowds as they unleash a coordinated, explosive assault that decapitates the US government and plunges the nation into a dark, powerless state of chaos.

At the National Mall, Deputy Secretary of Defense Jonas Cassidy is enjoying the festivities with his wife and young daughter when the drones descend. Ripped from his family in the panicked stampede, Jonas is dragged into a secure underground bunker to help a shattered government respond, leaving him trapped below while his loved ones face the burning, riot-torn streets of the capital alone.

Meanwhile, half a world away in Belarus, aging CIA officer Tom Meyer discovers his country is under attack as global communications go dead. His survival is far from guaranteed as he finds himself stranded deep behind enemy lines, facing a treacherous journey across a hostile, war-torn landscape if he has any hope of ever seeing his family again.

Back home on their sprawling ranch in rural Washington state, Tom’s wife Amanda and their daughters watch the world unravel before their screens go dark. With society collapsing around them, they are about to experience the most intense test of their survival and homesteading skills as they prepare to defend their land against the encroaching desperation of their own neighbors.
