The Burning Hollow

2022

USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR & #1 POST-APOCALYPTIC FICTION AUTHOR “Not your typical post apocalyptic fiction, this has a great story line, excellent characters, and a gripping tale.” – JD, Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★ In the near future, in the picturesque town of Burning Hollow, Tennessee, a century-old feud rages between the Bickmores and the Banks, the most influential families in town. Their battle for governance is marked by bloodshed, and the tides of power are constantly shifting. Then, as if fate has conspired against them, a cataclysmic attack on the nation ensues, followed by a devastating EMP strike. With society now powerless and spiraling out of control, Rowdy Banks risks everything to return to the small town that exiled him. He does not expect to encounter Chloe Bickmore or her daughter, Everleigh, or the nightmare that follows. But, unbeknownst to them, each holds the key to the other’s salvation. Desperate and unaware of the immense danger they face, or the crucial roles they must play to save the holler and its traditions, the three will fight through past rivalries, deep in the heart of apocalypse, where the town, their families, and the struggle to survive hangs by a thread. Prepare yourself for a mesmerizing new adventure filled with compelling characters, apocalyptic ambiance, well-timed laughs, and a few poignant moments. Perfect for fans of Kyla Stone, Franklin Horton, Jack Hunt, T.L. Payne, Grace Hamilton, Bobby Akart, and The October Fall series.

The Resurgence of Patriots

2023

The hardships of the EMP… …threaten the whole of Burning Hollow. Can the town safeguard its resources from the bold new threats? With a blistering wave of ground assaults now crushing Knoxville, foreign troops engage in wholesale slaughter, forcing small pockets of survivors to flee in a mass exodus. Wyatt Rutledge has led an assemblage of refugees to the safety of Burning Hollow, but their salvation presents the gravest of threats to the Banks family farm and everyone else in the holler. Compelled to choose between self-preservation and compassion, the unofficial town council must make a host of tough decisions, one of which is how to defend Burning Hollow. The outcome of their decisions will not only tear at the very fabric of the town, it will force the new militia to hold the line against a nasty war that few are equipped to fight. Starvation is the consequence of poor preparation, but death will come to those unwilling or unable to defend their homesteads, which is the predicament the Banks family now faces. With winter coming, national conflicts unfolding, and the question of how to handle a pack of unruly refugees unanswered, the effects of a fallen civilization are both startling and real. Unfortunately, this war is about to level up, all but guaranteeing the fall of Burning Hollow in the days and weeks to come. Who will survive and who will perish? And who will rise to the call of the town to do what so many others cannot or will not do?
