 CRUEL SUMMER |
|
Six million people will suffer unimaginable horrors. Only a select few will even remember.
Medallion Press In one moment, with no explanation, six billion humans fall unconscious. For three minutes, minds collide with truths hidden beyond the physical realm. During those decisive minutes, every conceivable accident transpires. People reawaken to a world that has changed, drastically and horrifically, with decimated populations and gutted social order. And no one seems to remember the truth that has been revealed. Excerpt John Thomas tried to focus on the spot where his father's head and shoulders should be. His father wasn't there. Where was he? Fear jolted him. They'd had a very bad accident. Was something wrong with his father? John Thomas fumbled with his seat belt, forgetting that he'd been trying to remember something, ignoring Lucas, the pain in his head, needing only to see his father, to know he was there and he was all right. He grabbed the front seat, heaved himself up, and saw his father, body contorted on the floor beneath the dash, head turned at an impossible angle, eyes staring at him. John Thomas stopped breathing. His pulse thrummed his eardrums. He fastened his gaze on his father's trembling lips. "Watch out," Craig Thomas croaked. John Thomas leaned farther over the seat, straining to hear. Using his last breath of life, Craig whispered, "Watch out . . . for . . . Lucas." "Dad?" John Thomas stared, stunned. Lifeless eyes stared back at him."
