In today’s world, law enforcement agencies across the country rely on forensic tools, DNA testing, and crime labs. But what if that technology was suddenly no longer available? No one in the small, west Texas town of Shadow Ridge knows what took down the power grid, or when it’s going to be back up, but everyone knows exactly where they were the moment it went down. And now, with no electricity, no internet, and no modern technology, the men and women responsible for keeping the town safe are going to have to learn how to fight crime all over again.

When one of the men in charge of storing food for the town of Shadow Ridge is found murdered execution style, it’s up to Jace McQuaid to find the killer. What he discovers is a group of organized raiders who are stealing supplies and selling them on the black market—and the survival of the town depends on stopping them.
Morgan Addison’s estranged brother, Ricky, shows up at her house demanding weapons and confirming her fears that he’s a part of the outlaws. Tensions are raised further when Ricky kidnaps her son to ensure his safe passage out of town. Jace must find a way to save Noah and ensure the survival of Shadow Ridge.

JENNIE READS REVIEW

Recently I had the opportunity to live off the grid for a couple of days – it was not my choice but the weather’s – but this gave me a better perspective of what the characters of this book were experiencing. Now, in my case, I was pretty sure the time would be limited, and cellular data was still available. For the characters in this book, there is no end in sight and the author, while giving us some background, then drops us into the story after almost a year of the town learning to adapt to their new normal.

Jace, the main character, has been volun-told (not really volunteered but more like forced) into the position of leading the police department for this small town. While most of the town is just trying to survive, there are glimpses of life still managing to be somewhat normal.

While the book’s focus is on Jace, we do get a little insight into recently widowed Morgan and her son Noah. Most of the other characters are not nearly as well developed, however they do add some accessories to the story and hopefully are potentially better expanded during the series.

The town’s lack of resources and the ways they have learned to cope is lightly explored. Also little is told about the world outside of this small town.

Being the first book in this series, there are a number of items left unknown.  There are a lot of stories that could be explored here. Because I am a curious person, reading this book, where I couldn’t know everything, was a bit of a challenge for me.

This is definitely a sweet romance; as such there are more thoughts than actions. The story does have instances of religious foundation and experiences, but that is done with a light hand and works well in the weave of the plot.

I see a lot of potential here for a variety of books and look forward to discovering how the author has developed this series.

What would you miss most if the grid went down? While not as essential as toilet paper or air-conditioning during a Texas summer, I think the McQuaid heroines from this series would love a bit of self-care—and so would I. – Author Lisa Harris

  1. I definitely haven’t enjoyed our little real-life dips into that dystopian world that the Fallout series explores. I listened to this book (narrator is fabulous) and like you, had SO many questions. I’ve downloaded the free prequel and plan on reading that now! Thanks for sharing your review.
