Shelter in Place
The government is after someone, but who—and why? A riveting manmade disaster thriller from the author of the popular The Journal and EMPulse series.
As the small resort town of Kapac, Ohio, prepares for their annual August festivities, another preparation is underway of a more malicious nature. A suspicious toxic spill on the only road in or out, by unknown agents, quarantines the town and threatens not only its livelihood, but also its very life. Shut off from everything, nearly a thousand trapped residents—with only a limited local food supply—lose power, and with that, city water and sewage, and then communications. The government is the only entity powerful enough to pull this off, but why? Who are they after?
Undersheriff Casey WhiteCloud has his hands full when he is the only law left in town during the incident. When a serial killer emerges, the scared, hungry, and increasingly angry population turns on each other.
And then the heat gets turned up. Literally. And people start to die.
Deborah D. Moore
Deborah D. Moore lives a quiet life in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. She was born and raised in Detroit, the kid of a cop, and moved to a small town to raise her two young sons, then moved to an even smaller town to pursue her dreams of being self-sufficient and to explore her love of writing. Her first published novel, The Journal: Cracked Earth, made the bestseller's list in just six weeks, and was followed by Ash Fall, Crimson Skies and Raging Tides; the first three were turned into a trilogy. After that came Fault Line and Martial Law to complete the Journal series. Deborah has also written a cookbook, based on her off-grid experiences in the woods of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Many of her recipes have evolved from foraging: from ramps, fiddleheads, and cattail flowers in the late spring, to various wild mushrooms all summer long.Marni Penning is a classically trained, award-winning stage and film actress who has performed in fifty-four productions of twenty-three of Shakespeare's plays to date.
