Nuclear Summer

In Book 3 of the Nuclear Winter series, "Nuclear Summer," the heart-pounding third chapter of the EMP Series, the survivors face a daunting new phase in their battle for survival. After dedicating two years to meticulous preparations against the determined Islamic jihadists from Central America, who aim to secure control of the Hoover Dam and the Colorado River to establish an Islamic caliphate in Arizona, the survivors confront an evolving world. The once-pervasive nuclear winter has given way to a fresh peril-the influence of storms driven by the wandering jet stream. In a daring move, the survivors decide to divide into two groups. While the majority seek refuge in the Veteran's Hospital in North Las Vegas, holding onto the hope of resurrecting a semblance of society, a courageous few remain unwavering at the mountain, resolute in their determination to protect it from all threats. Samantha, a steadfast leader among the survivors, is thrust into the forefront of a fierce battle unfolding at the Hoover Dam. This clash coincides with global shifts in weather patterns, unleashing radioactive dust brought forth by an El Nino storm. Once again compelled to seek shelter, the survivors grapple with an unrelenting struggle against human adversaries and nature's unforgiving forces. As tensions reach their zenith, tragedy strikes, leaving the survivors reeling from the unimaginable consequences. Their trials push the boundaries of their resilience, unity, and determination to endure against insurmountable odds.

The survivors' indomitable spirit is tested, with danger lurking at every twist and the line between friend and foe blurred. Amidst the shadows of loss, uncertainty, and the ever-present specter of annihilation, they must summon strength from within themselves and each other to navigate the treacherous path that stretches before them.
