The Shockwave series

Transient Pulse

When the nation is hit by a mysterious shockwave, the resulting power outage interrupts the world as we know it. Everything that was powered on at the time of the transient pulse is destroyed, seizing cities and populations in mass explosions caused by the rippling aftershocks.

The lingering darkness severs society in two: those who choose ruinous control, stealing and murdering for provisions, and those who begin to create plans for long-term survival.

The latter includes Dixie, a strong, yet hesitant young woman living in the heart of southern California. Dixie is forced to build plans to navigate the country in hopes to find a northern safe zone with Paul, a level-headed survivalist.

When Paul goes missing, Dixie must overcome her chronic uncertainty and make the first of many life-or-death decisions:

Will Dixie choose to wait for Paul, using up their limited supplies in the delay? Or, will Dixie begin the journey on her own, possibly having to turn to the dark side of society to survive?

Oscillation Rising

Spoiler Alert!

Forced to flee the one place Dixie thought was going to be her refuge, she sets out to reunite with her lost allies. An ongoing reign of shockwaves continues to devastate the nation, causing an electrically enclosed community, Oscillation, to rise as a haven of hope to remaining survivors.

Determined to uncover the secrets of her past, Dixie now pursues Oscillation with her small group of companions, discovering more secrets to add to her ongoing hunt for the truth.

Will Dixie find the answers she seeks? Or, will more mysteries be unleashed surrounding her family and the future of the nation’s existence?

Static Equilibrium

Spoiler Alert!

The haven of hope, Oscillation, turned out to be the opposite, imprisoning Dixie and her allies when she was close to discovering a hidden truth. In Dixie’s escape, she was forced to leave someone behind with those who have proven themselves to be enemies. But are all the Oscillation leaders corrupt? Is there someone on the inside whom Dixie can trust?

Dixie and her companions continue their plan to rescue lost friends from an unknown fate. On their travels, the pulses continue to strike the country, and no one knows when the shockwaves will stop, or if they even will. With every energy burst, the mystery of who is truly behind their friends’ abduction and the shockwaves deepens.

Is everything connected? Will uncovering her past reveal details as to who Dixie should trust? Can she prevent the country’s devastation on her own? Or will she need to choose an unlikely ally?

The Fall

Step into the world of The Shockwave. Moments before the first pulse hits the country, two key players reveal their connection to the dreaded electromagnetic machine.

Gretchen is a scientist working on a blood and DNA project to protect civilians from EMP strikes. Alec is working on a similar tool. He built an electric dome to keep those enclosed safe from imminent attacks.

This is the prequel to the completed trilogy, The Shockwave. Continue the series with book one, Transient Pulse.
