About the Book:

As the electronic pulses that caused the power outage finally come to an end, thirteen-year-old Beth Branning witnesses two brutal murders. She narrowly escapes the killer and runs away in terror. But he knows who she is, and it’s just a matter of time before he comes after her. Torn between fear and compassion, Beth tries to help the grieving wife of one of the victims. But will her bravery cost Beth her life? As the power begins to be restored, the Branning's face their toughest crisis yet. Will God require more of them this time than they’re prepared to give? New York Times bestselling suspense author Terri Blackstock weaves a masterful what-if novel in which global catastrophe reveals the darkness in human hearts―and lights the way to restoration for a self-centered world.

My Rating & Thoughts:    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Picks up once again with the Branning family living through the world blackout. It has now been a year since it began and there is possibilities the pulses are ending and power will be restored. Someone witnesses a murder and is threatened, they refuse to tell anyone what happened and this takes a dark turn. The Branning's faith is tested, but there is a strong faith message with lots of scripture verses shared and discussed. Filled with tense moments, with murder and life threatening situations. The emotions express felt very realistic and understandable in the moment. I loved the character dynamics and was so invested in the family and the situation. I was very close to tears a few times. I loved the play the community children put on. This was a favourite and I highly recommend reading, but you must read the books in order to really get to know the characters and understand the situation.
