Dan Slaughter’s life is already falling apart. Burned out from his job and haunted by his wife’s death, he travels to Boise after hearing his best friend has died of an overdose. But the deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes that Carl’s death was no accident. His search for answers exposes a violent underworld—and then the world itself collapses.
When a devastating EMP strike cripples society, Dan must fight to survive in a city unraveling into chaos. Forced to rely on instincts he thought he left behind, he becomes a man driven by vengeance and survival.
Franklin Horton’s Burning Down Boise launches The Way of Dan series, a brutal and deeply human post-apocalyptic thriller about loyalty, justice, and redemption.
