Seeking Home (The Left for Dead Saga) (eBook, ePUB)
In book 1 of the series, Left for Dead, during a record breaking polar vortex, snow storms inundated the South, leaving behind snow and ice more common to the Dakotas. An unknown enemy attacked the world, leaving society without modern technology. Without the internet, air travel, and few running vehicles of any kind, regional conflicts redefine modern warfare. Forces of darkness moved into the vacuum of power left in the wake of the global disaster, reeking havoc on an unsuspecting civilian populous. Book 4, Seeking Home picks up where book 3, Facing Darkness left off. Asher Latham, aka Polar Bear, and his small group of friends, who upon escaping their icy tomb inside the maximum security prison, swore an oath to keep a new moral code, have been working hard to reunite with their loved ones. They've managed to find several family members, but more are still missing. They've overcome seemingly insurmountable odds, fought and won against dark forces, who if left to their own devices, would turn the region into a tyrannical regime not seen since the dark ages. In book 3, they joined up with a group of church members hiding out inside Budcamp's RV dealership. Together, the new and much larger group have worked to salvage anything they might need from Nashville's largest mall, which sits under floodwaters. Armed men in a canoe have surprised one of their own, threatening his life. Will Asher and the others inside the mall come to his rescue in time? Will they find their still missing loved ones? Will they survive the winter?- Shop: buecher
