The Midnight Hour

<p><b>In this unputdownable sequel to the heartbreaking bestseller <i>The Last Stars in the Sky</i> one family's fight for survival continues as they navigate a world forever changed.</b></p><p>Seven months ago our family left suburban Connecticut for my parents' isolated lake house in a naïve attempt to reconnect. Life had imploded or so I thought then. I hoped the change would reset us. A montage of Hallmark moments-card games in candlelight hugs and healing chats. What I got was a nuclear holocaust five days after we arrived.</p><p>Last week the lake house burned to the ground. Our last place of safety. Now I watch my children huddle together their faces lit up by our tiny campfire beneath the towering blackness of endless pine forests. I wonder what tomorrow will bring-for the world but also for my family.</p><p>My daughters are so <i>young</i>. They've seen so little of life but far too much. What future can they possibly have? I <i>must</i> keep them safe. No matter what lies ahead. <b>Already I know it's a promise I don't have the power to make</b>...<b> but I'll die trying to keep it.</b></p><p>A gripping tale of resilience hope and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her children from a million-copy bestselling author. If you love Boo Walker<i> Where the Forest Meets the Stars</i> and Julianne MacLean you won't be able to put this book down.</p>
