They had claimed that it would never happen, that the day would never come. They were wrong. Five years after the collapse, former Texas Ranger Lucas Shaw navigates the wasteland, where there is only one rule: kill or be killed. When a mysterious young woman enters his life with a desperate plea, Lucas must face an impossible challenge and fight an enemy who stops at nothing. Hard-hitting and fast-paced, Guilt and Atonement marks the beginning of the Wasteland series, a nonstop adrenaline rush in a frighteningly realistic apocalyptic scenario. Fans of Jack Reacher, The Hunger Games, and Road Warrior will find plenty to enjoy here. "The best post-apocalypse I've read in ages. I hope this book survives the end of the world. Can't wait to read the sequel.".
