The sky has gone dark. The world as we know it is over. And the hardest journey has just begun.

Matt Anderson is 2,500 miles away from his wife and sons when a catastrophic super-eruption plunges the globe into an endless, suffocating winter. Surviving his plane’s crash-landing in the Nevada desert is only the first miracle. Now, to keep a promise to his wife, he must cross a rapidly collapsing America. Armed with only a scavenged fat-tire bicycle and his Marine survival training, Matt pushes east through a lawless wasteland where desperate survivors and brutal raiders rule the ruined highways.

In the isolated mountains of Green Bank, West Virginia, Laura Anderson is fighting a different kind of war. Cut off from the outside world inside the National Radio Quiet Zone, Laura fortifies her in-laws’ farm as black rain poisons the water and freezing temperatures set in. But the deadliest threat isn’t the environment. As panic grips the town, a charismatic and terrifying preacher rises to power, declaring the ash a divine judgment. To protect her boys, Laura must stand against a zealot who is fracturing the fragile community she is trying so desperately to hold together.

Separated by a continent in ruins, husband and wife must endure physical and moral gauntlets to find their way back to one another. But in a world that has lost its mind, how much of their own humanity will they have to sacrifice to survive?

A gripping, emotionally resonant post-apocalyptic thriller, Seasons of Ash blends quiet dread with grounded, pulse-pounding survival.

Perfect for readers who loved the grit of The Road, the atmosphere of Station Eleven, and the heart of The Dog Stars.

“A slow burn that layers mystery, atmosphere, and emotional depth… highly recommended.” — Reader Review
