Synopses & Reviews
After sixty-six days of a catastrophic global blackout, life in the suburbs is not what it used to be for Adam and his fortified neighborhood of Eden Mills. Although an explosive clash has minimized one threat from outside the walls, Adams battle-hardened mentor, Herb, continues to make decisions in the name of security that are increasingly wrenching and questionable. Like his police chief mom and others, Adam will follow Herbs lead. But when the next threat comes from an unexpected direction, nobody is ready for it. And someone is going to pay the price—because of Adams mistakes and mistaken trust.
Review
"The struggle for survival in a world suddenly bereft of technology continues immediately from where The Rule of Three left off . . . the philosophical questions and killer ending will prime readers for the next book." - Kirkus Reviews
