When the EMP hits Columbus, investigative journalist, Rowan McDaniel, is trapped in a downtown high-rise with insurgents surrounding the building. While his co-workers speculate about the power outage and the onslaught of violence abounds, Rowan becomes increasingly concerned for his pregnant fiancée, Constanza. In the face of insurmountable danger, he must wade into the mobs of anarchists if he hopes to save himself, his family, and his employees. Make-up and beauty influencer, Constanza Navarro, is eight months pregnant and driving home from the hospital when her car suddenly dies. With the city held hostage by a grassroots revolution, the pains in her stomach continue unchecked. Fearing the worst, she abandons the car thinking she can walk home. Only when a stranger comes to her aid does she feel that she and the little girl growing inside her might survive. But not everyone is who they claim to be, and not all intentions are good intentions. Amid the chaos, in the grip of lawlessness, the city is teeming with wolves pretending to be sheep. To Constanza, what first appears to be a sign from God becomes a fight for her life and a struggle to save her newborn child. In a city fit to burn, weary and running on fumes and desperation, Rowan finds himself trapped in a post-apocalyptic nightmare from which there is no escape. This epic, edge-of-your-seat journey will not only test Rowan and Constanza, it will force them to either grow stronger, or it will be the death of them.
