Synopsis

When the lights go out, the true countdown begins.

An electromagnetic pulse has instantly crippled the nation, plunging the eastern seaboard into darkness. Stranded thirty-seven miles from home, municipal water supervisor Tom Brewer must navigate a dead, panic-stricken highway to reach his wife and daughter. The world he knew is gone, replaced by gridlocked roads, failing supply chains, and desperate people realizing that help is never coming.

But getting home is only the first battle. With the electric pumps destroyed, Bellweather’s water supply will run completely dry in exactly forty-eight hours. Tom's only hope is a dangerous race to restore an abandoned, gravity-fed mountain reservoir before the town tears itself apart from thirst. Facing armed refugees closing in on the borders and a ruthless rival contractor vying for control of the dwindling resources, Tom must fight to keep the water flowing. In a society stripped of its rules, whoever controls the water controls who lives and who dies.
