Sometimes the most shattered souls make the fiercest protectors.
When a virus decimates civilization, those remaining must survive in an unrecognizable world.
Elle awakes from her fever forever changed. Her touch is lethal and power courses through her veins like liquid fire. With four orphaned children depending on her, Elle is terrified of more than Alaska’s brutal winter and the collapsing city—she’s terrified of the darkness growing inside her.
Jackson lost everything to the outbreak: his family, his purpose, his hope. Trading his badge for a bottle of bourbon, he holes himself away, desperate to numb the pain. But when Elle and the kids need help, the walls around his heart begin to crack. Determined to get everyone to safety, Jackson leads them into the wilderness, relying on instinct and the traditions of his people to keep them safe.
Only, in a world where the greatest threats aren’t the cold or starvation, but what humanity has become, new monsters lurk in the shadows, capable of impossible things.
The longer Jackson clings to his grief and Elle hides her devastating secrets, they risk losing not only each other, but everything they’re fighting to save. And to survive what’s coming, they’ll have to shed the past. Because family isn’t about blood, it’s about who you’d die to protect and who you’d dare to live for.
A soul-stirring tale of found family, impossible choices, and the courage to fight for hope when darkness feels endless.

The Darkest Winter is a well written, very compelling novel of viral apocalypse with a twist: surviving changes not just your psychology, but physiology as well, in extremely unpredictable ways. The book covers the initial horror of the virus, the survival challenges in its immediate aftermath and the core characters starting to figure out how the virus changed for better or worse. I can't wait to start The Longest Night, book two! 5/5 stars, highly recommended!
The Darkest Winter is an exceptionally well written pandemic type book. This book will yank your emotions first one way then another. There’s a bit of action and adventure to help round out this novel.
Great story line and believable characters. I don't usually like stories where characters have powers, but this one is good !
Great read... Great imagination... Nonstop reading. Ready for the next. Keep it going. Thank you for the imagination put into this!
Plenty of realistic as well as imaginary and sci fi events and emotions in this story. One of the best post-apocalyptic adventure stories I have ever read. It definitely left me wanting more.
