He has a farmhouse at the end of a county road, a stocked pantry, and a brand-new pistol on his kitchen table.He's wrong about all of it.The gun can't keep him warm. It can't turn snow into safe water, or dry his soaked boots before the cold takes his toes, or stretch two months of food across a five-month winter. As the temperature drops and the real enemy reveals itself, Stuart discovers the terrifying truth every survival fantasy leaves out: the cold doesn't care how brave you are. It has killed more people than every war in history, and it's patient, and it's coming.Then the marauders come up his road.

But knowledge isn't enough. Out beyond the trees waits a town full of desperate men, a clever and merciless Marshal building a kingdom of fear, and a hollow-eyed survivor whose loyalty may be the deadliest threat of all.To live until spring, Stuart will have to lose everything he thought made him safe, and learn the one lesson that separates the living from the dead: Nobody survives the long cold dark alone.A relentless, white-knuckle EMP survival thriller about heat, hunger, hard choices, and the people we keep each other alive for.
