SURVIVE! A post-apocalyptic thriller by Carl D. Lucas
They went camping to save their marriage. They came back to the end of the world.
The world was locked down and their marriage was quietly breaking. So Thomas and Michelle made a plan: two weeks in a mountain cabin, the whole family, far from the sick cities below. The first week they still logged in every day, work for the parents, online school for the boys. Then the signal faded. Nobody minded.
It was supposed to bring them back together.
It did. Just not the way they planned.
While they were up in the mountains, the world below went quiet. The way home changed everything. Because the roads are not empty.
Thomas is a manager who can't hang a shelf straight. Michelle has never held a gun. Their sons are twelve and fifteen and fight about everything. They are soft, suburban, and completely unprepared.
They have each other. It will have to be enough.
