About this listen
An EMP attack throws the nation into chaos. Ayden Miller received the call no son ever wants to hear—his mother is ill and not expected to make it. After saying goodbye to his girlfriend, Mia, and her three young sons, he returns to New York City, where he is suddenly thrust into a battle for survival when a devastating EMP attack cripples the nation, plunging it into total chaos.
With chaos everywhere and society collapsing before his eyes, he'll have to risk everything to get his sister to safety and make it back to Wyoming and the people he loves. Desperate to return them, Ayden will do whatever it takes to reach them.
Back in the rugged wilderness of Wyoming, Mia and her boys confront a menacing threat as an old adversary sees the EMP-induced chaos as the perfect opportunity to settle old scores, targeting Mia and her sons as pawns in a vengeful scheme. Faced with the ultimate test of survival, Mia must draw upon her deep well of resourcefulness and courage to protect her children and make it to safety.
In this tale of survival, Ayden and Mia's stories converge in a dramatic struggle against the forces that seek to keep them apart.
Collapse, book one in the high-octane Conquer the Dark series, is perfect for fans of Jack Hunt, Grace Hamilton, Harley Tate, and Mike Kraus.

Frank has read all the books about the end of the world . . . but books can't pull the trigger. He's tried to keep the peace. He's tried to talk his way out of tight spots. And yet he still ended up with a body count fit for a warlord. And it's only getting worse. Frank's problem, and the problem of everyone on Clownfish Cove, is that words can't fill the stomachs of the hungry city around them. The area controlled by the neighborhood watch is the only place not tearing itself to shreds. It is the only place with food, fresh water, and a bit of hope.

President John F. Kennedy once said, “Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind.” Today, a new element has been introduced to the preparations—artificial intelligence. The United States, in its quest to rapidly and effectively defend the nation from a nuclear attack, has incorporated AI into its operation plan of response. But what if the artificial intelligence relied upon by the nation’s decision-makers is wrong? What if AI takes the controls of America’s nuclear response? Might it trigger nuclear war without justification?

Before the lights went out, Jack Warrant never considered himself a prepper. That was someone on the edge, a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday cultist who had a fatalistic view of the world. He was neither a theorist nor a cultist. He was an optimist. At least that was what he told himself when the darker thoughts creeped into his psyche as he stared at the ceiling in the middle of the night. Whenever he started down the rabbit hole, he always clawed his way back into the sunlight.

Story
President John F. Kennedy once said, “Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind.” Today, a new element has been introduced to the preparations—artificial intelligence. The United States, in its quest to rapidly and effectively defend the nation from a nuclear attack, has incorporated AI into its operation plan of response. But what if the artificial intelligence relied upon by the nation’s decision-makers is wrong? What if AI takes the controls of America’s nuclear response? Might it trigger nuclear war without justification?
