One afternoon, every single machine in sixteen-year-old Adams high school computer lab stops working. Outside, cars wont start, phones are down, and a blackout is widespread. Soon Adam will discover that the problem has paralyzed not just his town but the whole country and beyond. As resources dwindle, crises mount, and chaos descends, he will see that his suburban neighborhood must band together for protection.

Set in the here and now but with a distinctly dystopian feel, this is Erics most exciting and commercial title yet!
