Book Four -No Storm Like This

 
You can click on the Author's Profile at the top of this blog to see all the books I have written at Amazon.com
 
 
Now available at both Barnes and Nobel and 
I just finished Book Four of the River Survival Series. There's a lot of  violence, warfare, sex and alternative beliefs in this volume. As the federal government seeks to restore order seven years after the grid collapses, they implement horrific incentives to "inspire" citizens to capitulate to their demands.
 
If you haven't read the first three books, you'll be missing out on key scenes, which I refer to in book four. We have met and loved many colorful characters, found out how they evolved into the killing machines they are in this thriller, and see how they cope with the brutality of the new society.

 Book One begins with a couple living in the back woods of Georgia. After the grid goes down, they must hold their own against the local townsfolk trying to take over. Eventually, Carla Hunter must make her way north, alone, to reunite with family.

 
Book Two takes place in a small community along the Mississippi River. Hunter and her family assimilate, but must fight enemies from Chicago who plan a devastating raid.

 
Book Three sees the beginning of the spring campaign against American citizens who have recreated a working society apart from the federal government. Our beloved River Patrol goes through some internal fighting, the Sheriff proves he can handle it.

The Villan Dies

Back in Georgia, the guy who served as the villain of my first novel, AN END of DAYS, has died. He didn't know I patterned Jack Trader after him, never knew he ended up living in Chicago, working for the Contributors, selling out his one time neighbor, Carla.

He didn't know he eventually was cannibalized. This neighbor lived up on the hill behind us. He died at age 65, not really so bad, because really he didn't live very healthy.
 
 
You can find this book at  Amazon.com  along with the next two in the series.
 
I kind of felt bad making him the villain and now he's dead. His wife is still alive, back in the woods.
They still have the same set up I used in the fictional book.
