Paradise Burning

Four weeks without power.

Four weeks without law.

And Paradise is starting to burn.

The EMP didn’t kill them. The neighbors almost did.

The collapse shattered the fragile order holding The Villages together. As fires spread and a string of murders ignites fear across the community, John Turner and Deputy Mitchum are pushed to the brink trying to keep control. Evidence suggests the danger may be coming from inside their own ranks.

Beyond the safety of the neighborhood, Daniel, Sarah, and Tom are forced into a desperate trip toward Leesburg. Mike Porter is still out there, and he won’t stop until he finds those responsible for his sister’s death. Old loyalties resurface. Trust fractures. Survival may depend on choosing the wrong side.

Back in The Villages, Charlotte and her daughter Bree discover that some threats don’t disappear when the world ends. As the collapse strips away protection and oversight, a figure from Charlotte’s past returns, determined to reclaim what he believes is his.

With violence spreading, alliances crumbling, and the lines between protector and predator blurring, Paradise Burning delivers a chilling truth. When the lights go out, danger doesn’t always come from strangers.

PARADISE BURNING is Book Two in the Dark Paradise series, an EMP survival thriller about consequence, control, and how quickly the past resurfaces when civilization loses its grip.
