Blackout - E-book - ePub

The living are in hiding, and the dead are just existing. There has to be more to life. There has to be more than this. The power has gone out in London. No one knows why. No one knows when it will come back on. In the darkness and the panic, a new virus spreads through the community, and with it comes fear. Not just of dying, but of surviving. One man is left alone. Terrified. Losing hope. Longing for the lights to come back on.
Trying to protect his family, he forms unlikely alliances with neighbours he's never spoken to as they form a new community. Trying to understand what has happened to the infrastructure of the country, they feel abandoned, without direction, without power. Soon they realise that it is not just the lights they rely on for electricity. And then the virus strikes. Soon, it is not just the looters and Raiders they are afraid of, but each other, as the infection begins to spread.
As the circle of people around him shrinks, its his sanity that becomes his biggest demon.
