A stunning sunset begins in the northeastern sky. It sunk beautifully, like a time-lapse movie of eerie summer sunsets. But it was no ordinary event. Wholly orange, it reached up and up until it loomed over town, blocking out the sun. Somehow, she knew, life was going to change soon. Police Officer Fynn is on duty in Missouri when something terrible happens. The sunset is followed by a record number of calls about lights and ships in the sky and a power outage that lasts for months. She survives the visits by the watchers but realizes months later to find life transformed, with controlled weather, a ship-filled sky, citizens missing and the desperate need for an emergency plan for them all. So begins her journey to find shelter, food and the missing, along with the answer to the mystery of what has arrived. Others slowly discover an alien threat, unlike anything they've ever seen. And suddenly, their world is ripped apart. On the run from the watchers, Fynn's determination to protect her town is her only weapon as citizens begin moving to one area together and into chaos.

I love Deb's style. I can easily feel accomplished by actually finishing a book that I start reading. 5 Stars! David Parker "I've been binge-listening to Post Apocalyptic books, and this book is right up there with the best of them. For me, plausibility is a big deal - I like real people solving real problems. I think the author did a great job creating believable situations that held my interest. This is also the first Post Apocalyptic book I've read that was written from the perspective of a woman. Many of the scenes involve her struggling with self-doubts, but always becoming the strong woman at the right time. This may sound tedious, but I felt the way it was written helped embellish the storyline. Some may also feel that the main characters were a bit too lucky, but in this new World you make your own luck, and that's what they did. Overcoming one obstacle after another as the World grew ever bleaker truly holds your interest."Kristen Lewis "I regret nothing. It DOES beg the questions, though: In such a situation, where there are no answers as to what can cause the world to physically flip flop to the extreme unknown, who can you trust? How does one survive when they are ill-prepared for such an extended and volatile event? Where do you draw the line of humanity when very decision means life or death? I purchased this book outright. I was not disappointed."Visit Alien Zoo on FB! Mandy M. "I found myself in tears reading the last pages of this book. It was not just a story about Aliens, it was more than that. It restored my faith in life and humanity. It gave meaning to all of our journey's. Well done."
