Elle is a survivor.
Since the collapse of modern society, she's been living in the remains of downtown Hollywood, California, foraging for food and fighting for her life.
And then everything changes.
After she is forced out of her home, she heads north. What she finds is a group of bunker survivors, unlikely comrades, and the hope of a safe haven. Together, they journey toward the dregs of civilization, facing starvation, imprisonment and death.
They are alone, but they are ready.
Day Zero begins today.

Connecting the Collapse Series
The Collapse Series is one of those stories that keeps going. It has a mind of its own, and at some point, the characters begin to shape their own destinies and you, as an author, find yourself along for the ride. With Day Zero, I had the intricate task of creating an entirely new storyline set within the same world as The Collapse Series.
The journey that fifteen year-old Elle undertakes is a lot different than Cassidy Hart’s. Elle’s story begins in the midst of the day-to-day struggle of staying alive in a city that is no longer safe. She is a hardened survivor already, and what is even more interesting about her character is that she makes an appearance in The Collapse Series. How do Elle and Cassidy Hart connect? How are they independent? It’s definitely been tons of fun working out the details.
Those who have read The Collapse Series will pick up on references that connect both series of books, while new readers will get a glimpse of the world that Elle and Cassidy live in. Now that Day Zero has officially released, I’m hard at work on preparing the fifth installment of The Collapse Series – State of Alliance – for publication in January 2015, and Day One, the second installment in The Zero Trilogy, for March 2015.
