About this ebook

In this international science fiction adventure by Jake Blake, a massive solar flare and coronal mass ejection have erupted from the surface of the sun and are headed directly for the earth. In a few short hours, seven billion people will be forced to adapt to a world without electricity and modern technology. Meet this rich cast of characters, including a New York hedge fund manager and his supermodel wife, a sailboat captain, a teen Internet sensation, a soldier far from home and three astronauts on board the International Space Station as they cope with one crisis after another and brace for the greatest and worst electromagnetic storm in more than 150 years. Follow their adventures as they navigate large cities like New York and London, travel around the world in sailing yachts and space stations, witness daring bank robberies and stock market crashes, a solar powered plant meltdown in China, ominous auroras in Mecca, isolation in Afghanistan and Mumbai, and enjoy the comforts of small town summer life in Toledo, Washington.
