From Darkest Night - Paperback

Hiwi is a senior in high school whose only friend is his loyal German shepherd. Instead of waking up to catch a flight to spend spring break with his older brother in California, he wakes to a world seemingly devoid of people, except two other passengers.

After a timely intervention during a nighttime assassination attempt proves that there are still others left in the world, Hiwi must join forces with a brilliant drug addict, a former treasure hunter, a lawyer, his client, a pair of nomads, and a ruthless Vietnam veteran turned terrorist who doesn't look a day past twenty-five to uncover their connection to a Viking-age end-times prophecy and escape purgatory.

In a trek across the continental United States that culminates into a final confrontation with their shared past on the Vegas Strip, only one thing is certain--no matter who walks away, there will be consequences for humanity for years to come.
