The Long Haul Home: Book One in the Hunker Down Series - Paperback

by Shari Lobsinger (Author)

When the Earth's magnetic fields began to wobble, huge earsplitting "cracks" began to form. They weren't physical cracks, but the ripping apart of the atmosphere. The shock waves created much destruction in addition to mini EMPs. These EMPs began knocking out the electrical grid and cell service. They disabled anything with a circuit: computers, phones, newer cars, etc. Marie watched and waited for her son, Jarud, and daughter, Emma, to make their way home. Each was over a hundred miles away, in opposite directions of the farm. Emma began her trip home with her best friend from college and three of her junior high students who had been abandoned. Jarud, his wife, and young son finally began their journey home in an old, restored Bronco. Marie hoped all her nagging, training, and suggestions would help her children in their long haul home. With all the dangers Marie knew they would encounter on the road, she wondered if that would be enough.
