Description
We all experience underworld journeys, times when it seems like the life we knew was hijacked and the world is suddenly unrecognizable.
Jessie's future looks bright. She's a successful artist with an MFA and a job she loves when her clairvoyant grandmother has a vision of imminent catastrophe. Jessie, her dog, Wolfie, and Grammie flee to AspenRidge, their isolated off-grid retreat in Colorado's Rocky Mountains. The next day, a cyber-attack destroys the power-grid, and Jessie fears her father won't make it home from his conference in England.
Shawn struggled with PTSD after three tours in Afghanistan as a Navy corpsman. After a brutal winter in the mountains, an elk leads Shawn to a distraught Jessie. Attraction blossoms into love as Jessie and Shawn navigate the dangers of a post-apocalyptic world. While AspenRidge provides most of life's necessities, the cities they left behind are an unrecognizable underworld of chaos.
In a journey woven with myth and magic amid the beauty and storied history of the American West, Jessie and Shawn must confront their deepest fears and discover if their love is strong enough to survive the uncertainties of their strange new world.
