Keme Lopez needs to prepare his family for the apocalypse that he understands has already begun. Hesitation kills, and those who are slow to believe might not survive the first wave of anarchy. He must convince those he loves that this time the disaster is happening.
When all of the lower orbital satellites stop working, everyone is plunged into an apocalyptic world. Isolated in the small Texas town of Alpine, the Chihuahuan desert provides a natural buffer against a world gone mad. But some see the collapse as a chance to grab power, allies, and resources. Those people, left unchecked, could usher in the destruction of the place Keme calls home.
Whatever steps they take now, or fail to take, will determine their chances of survival as the world is covered in a Veil of Mystery.
