One Second After (A John Matherson Novel)

Publisher's Summary In a small North Carolina town, one man struggles to save his family after America loses a war that will send it back to the Dark Ages. Already cited on the floor of Congress and discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a book all Americans should read, One Second After is the story of a war scenario that could become all too terrifyingly real. Based upon a real weapon - the Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) - which may already be in the hands of our enemies, it is a truly realistic look at the awesome power of a weapon that can destroy the entire United States, literally within one second. This book, set in a typical American town, is a dire warning of what might be our future and our end. ©2009 William R. Forstchen (P)2009 Blackstone Audio, Inc.
