Perfect for you if...

You want post-apocalyptic fiction that focuses on realistic survival mechanics rather than zombie hordes or magical systems.
You're drawn to stories where ordinary people face extraordinary odds and their choices actually matter.
You've read Kraus before or loved other indie post-apocalyptic series and are hungry for the next one.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer character-driven literary fiction over plot-driven survival narratives.
You need your apocalypse explained through hard science rather than a sudden, unexplained event.
You're looking for hope and restoration. This is about the brutal cost of survival, not rebuilding civilisation.

About this book

On a quiet evening, virtually all fuel-powered vehicles ignite simultaneously, killing billions within twenty-four hours. Governments struggle to respond as their infrastructure, militaries, and cities are destroyed. Alice Burton and her two children are on vacation at a beach town in South Florida when fire consumes the area. They must travel on foot to find help, encountering both natural and human dangers. Meanwhile, her husband James is stranded at Denver International Airport, where cars and planes are burning around him. He faces a difficult journey through Denver to reunite with his family. Back in Michigan, Alice's parents are house-sitting on the family farm when the catastrophe strikes, forcing them to rely on their survival and homesteading abilities in unprecedented circumstances.
