Synopsis

A deadly coincidence of timing. Our sun gives life. And takes it away. Nature has no mercy.

A group of eighth grade girls are out on a backcountry wilderness camping trip, led by a wilderness expert and a group of chaperones. Along the return trip to civilization they discover they’ve been trapped in the wilderness by a life-altering event. One that proves to be deadly.

After a few days their predicament becomes apparent. No rescue is coming, despite savage dangers. The campers must stick together and fend for themselves.

Meanwhile, an even more sinister threat awaits them should they survive. Beyond their patch of wilderness, the whole world is changing, and not for the better. One chaperone steps up to lead the children and hundreds of refugees who join them on a journey into an unknown future. The fate of the region’s remnant of humankind hangs in the balance, tipping toward death.

À propos de l'auteur

A.L. Nelson has a lifelong passion for all things science and yet she finds herself becoming inexorably drawn to politics and a search for justice. Tales for her do not hold interest unless they land in the suspense/thriller/adventure category, usually with a female central character that is preferably southern. Her stories must entertain and might teach a valuable lesson, but it is not always necessary for the "damsel" to need rescuing. She lives in North Carolina with her family, which includes a dog. She can be contacted at her website/blog... http://alnelsonauthor.weebly.com/, on Twitter... @ALNelson13, or on Facebook as... A.L. Nelson.
