When the country goes dark, ordinary people find themselves facing the end of the world as they know it. With society collapsing before their eyes, they'll have to risk everything to protect their home and the people they love.
This was a great book. I got it free from Amazon a year or two ago, and have no picked it up. Glad I finally did. It is well written, and just scary enough that I almost wanted to flip through to not subject myself to what was coming. It is a fast read, and is engaging from beginning to end. I liked both Liam and Hannah - they are easy to root for. She is smart and not a damsel in distress during any part of this book which was refreshing. Each chapter is divided into Hannah, Liam, and the captor. I found out that this is quite the book series, and a lot of positive reviews for the whole thing, so I will continue reading to see where it is going. Ends on a cliff hanger.
