A destructive 8.7 earthquake nearly destroys San Francisco. The Prescott family’s home is demolished, the mother killed, and the father crippled. Their two sons, Jack, a senior in high school, and Dillon (former SEAL) in college, are unhurt—but determined to be prepared for the next disaster. When the Prescotts discover manmade forces were behind the disaster, they purchase a 315-acre island off the coast of Maine where there are no earthquakes. They recruit a community of friends/preppers with unique skills, some military—survival foremost in their plans yet there are sparks of romance. Before they finalize their preparations on the island, the unthinkable happens—a massive global disaster strikes, the world spiraling into an Ice Age—manmade pre-events the cause. While they attempt to find out who’s behind it all, local law enforcement, and workers who helped build their island fortress, come after Echo Island’s wealth of food/water, shelter, and energy—betrayals adding to the threats. The Prescott’s Echo Island community is forced to survive more than the ice age—they must defend their lives.
