About this audiobook

Northern Ontario, 1993. When the power goes out in the isolated city of Lex, its people are trapped in darkness and fear. Cut off from the world, the district falls under the control of cult leader Malcolm Gobbo, a man who takes whatever he wants—and now he wants Leah Hollen’s son. Leah never imagined she would have to save Adam from his own father. With the help of Kai, a defiant young Indigenous man, she begins a desperate fight for survival as the cult tightens its grip and Lex descends into chaos. Ordinary people are forced into impossible choices. Who will resist? Who will surrender? And who will find the strength to stand when everything falls apart? A gripping psychological survival thriller about a collapsing city, a ruthless cult, and the unbreakable bond between mother and child. This story isn’t just read. It’s survived. Contains dark subject matter that may be triggering for some readers.
