Wes and Raider have found themselves in the thick of things once again.

The KGR are hitting back relentlessly and, with Jessica’s group feared to be wiped out, the homestead falls into a quiet panic.

Paranoia is running rampant, and rightly so: there’s a mole who has been working for Spider in their midst.

After learning more about how the KGR operate, and where some of their caches are, Wes’s group goes on the offensive.

Everything changes with Jess’s revelation; they know they have to keep the pressure up to keep their freedom.

Even with Spider’s taunting and the knowledge that he has more moles planted within Wes’s inner circle, the group pushes on.

They are outmanned, outgunned, and running low on supplies.

It’s time for them to become even more unconventional.

Wes has to go back to his roots to come up with a plan to not only flush out the traitors, but to put a major hurt on their foes.

The group has underestimated the ruthless nature of the KGR and is thinking they are finally getting ahead of their enemies, when Emily starts to unravel.

There’s hope, but will that dark hope be enough for everyone to still survive?

As expected, Boyd provides another book that keeps you with the story line and anxiously waiting for the next in the series. The performance was great as always, Kevin Pierce delivers a great performance.

as always a winner

The storyline stays strong in this, the 4th installment of the series. The action is amping up once again, but the characters’ personalities are staying strong. I listened to this book in one sitting, as I couldn’t be torn away from Wes’ compound, and before I knew it the day way over and the book was ending. Boyd Craven III is an excellent author, whose talents shine through his writing. I’ve read all his books, and I can’t say enough good things about them. Highly recommended!

Amazing story

Boyd’s is a storyteller. The pace of the story is not overwhelming. It’s perfect and allows for the characters to be well developed. Wes is now one of my favorite characters. I can really allow my imagination to capture the story because of how he lays everything out.

Love this Author

I love that the main characters struggled earlier in life and prepared for the breakdown.

The dogs, and how Wes thought they were reacting

The good: This is a great story with excellent narration. The bad: A ripoff, at full price for half of a book at a time.

Great Story - Ripoff Price

there better be a book 5 in the works... you can't develop all of that and leave it where it stopped at the end of this book (4).

better not stop at book 4

If anyone is close to the author please get a cattle rod out and hover over him to expedite the writings lol

Hook set

good story all around, but gets a little tedious around the love triangle potential. would be more believable if military training was part of background..

good...but,,,,

One of the opening lines “When I Thought Things Were Getting Better… I Was Wrong” was so perfect for this book. It really sets the tone and keeps the tensions high. Dark Hope is the fourth book in the Still Surviving series and it throws the family into some more conflict (this time from the finale of book three).

Craven is able to tell a story that feels similar since this is a series but also takes a slightly different approach. Due to some news that Wes is given, perspectives are changing and there is more to live for. That, of course, doesn’t stop Wes and Raider from running into the fire without a suit. They are born leaders who don’t want to sit behind a desk and rule. They want to be out there fixing things. Making things better. And turning the hellscape of a world into a slightly less scary one.

The drama was still here. The KGR connections are in full swing and there is a lot of issue related to the group and their members. Every time they think they’re safe more bad things happen and Wes and company take things into their own hands to take care of the issues.

Overall, another good book in this series and a nice post-apocalyptic/homesteader book with the right amount of action and drama. A book that feels like home even if home is bit of a scary place sometimes.

Sometimes Clinging To Hope Is The Only Option
