Fast, tense, thrilling -- and timely: this will happen one day.
Highly recommended.
--Lee Child, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series This is no accident.
This is no act of God.
This is Blackout.
A terrifyingly plausible million-copy selling debut disaster thriller.
When the lights go out one night, no one panics.
Not yet.
The lights always come back on soon, don't they? Surely it's a glitch, a storm, a malfunction.
But something seems strange about this night.
Across Europe, controllers watch in disbelief as electrical grids collapse.
There is no power, anywhere.
A former hacker and activist, Piero investigates a possible cause of the disaster.
The authorities don't believe him, and he soon becomes a prime suspect himself.
With the United States now also at risk, Piero goes on the run with Lauren Shannon, a young American CNN reporter based in Paris, desperate to uncover who is behind the attacks.
After all, the power doesn't just keep the lights on--it keeps us alive.
