The Blackout Effect: Rescue Me!: Book Two
About this ebook
Centered on an adventurous couple, paramedic ALEX CALLAHAN-ARMSTRONG and firefighter MIKE ARMSTRONG, who are trying to save lives during a mysterious earthquake swarm, thunderstorms, an imminent hurricane—and a mega blackout. Deadly snakes and aggressive gators, a storm surge and chaos invade the once-serene Southern town while 9-1-1 is unavailable.
Throughout the adventure-thriller, readers follow the two first responders and their team rescuing islanders who face chilling challenges in darkness. Madness at stores, pharmacies, and a nursing home, along with beach rescues are what these first responders tackle while saving lives—as well as putting their own lives in extreme danger. If you liked 2012 and Sharknado sci-fi films, you’ll love this suspenseful page-turner to see just how far people will go when the lights go out.
