Publisher's Synopsis
It's been more than a year since the blackout, and seemingly forever since Dave Spear set out in a desperate search for his family. His quest has never been easy. He's been beaten half to death and almost murdered several times. And he's watched good friends die. He's been robbed of his most prized possession: an SUV he got running again using parts from his Faraday cage. But this former Marine gave as well as he got. The Corps taught him how to kill. And he's done plenty of that. Now Dave and wife Sarah are walking more than a thousand miles on foot, from Kansas to San Antonio and back to their prepper stronghold. With just a month to go, though, Sarah is ill and near death. Daughter Lindsey has a badly broken and infected leg. They have to face facts. They won't make it to San Antonio before winter sets in. The best they can do is to make it to Blanco, where Dave's good friend Red is the town's only law. Red will let them winter in Blanco and set out again in the spring. If only they can make it there alive.
