As the end of a worldwide crisis comes in sight, one family considers the lessons they have learned … and faces their ultimate test
.

In the face of a crisis that sweeps the entire planet back to the age before electricity, the Brannings face a choice. Will they hoard their possessions to survive—or trust God to provide as they share their resources with others?

#
1 bestselling suspense author Terri Blackstock weaves a masterful what-if series in which global catastrophe reveals the darkness in human hearts—and lights the way to restoration for a self-centered world
.

As the Pulses that caused the power outage are finally coming to an end, thirteen-year-old Beth Branning witnesses two brutal murders. She narrowly escapes from the killer and runs away in terror. If she tells anyone what she saw, he'll find her and kill her. But if she doesn't, her silence could cost her life.

Meanwhile, as Deni's ex-fiancé returns to Crockett with a newfound faith and the influence to get things done, Deni is torn between the man who can fulfill all her dreams and Mark Green, the man who inhabits them.

As the world slowly emerges from the crisis, the Brannings face their toughest crisis yet. Will God require more of them than they're prepared to give? How will they keep their faith if he doesn't answer their prayers?

ESTORATION
S
ERIES HAS BEEN THE MOST DIFFICULT
series I've written, mostly due to the amount of research involved. So many people have helped me with that, and I've attempted to acknowledge them in each book. For this book, I want to give special thanks to Bill Buchanan, for his electrical engineering expertise and his patience with me as I asked a million questions about how electricity works. A novelist himself, Bill understood what I was trying to accomplish and helped me think through the technical aspects of my story. Thanks, also, to his wife, Janet, for lending another set of eyes to the manuscript.

Special thanks to Dave Lambert, who's been editing my books for years, and always challenges me to take my writing to the next level. He edits with deep thought and insight into my characters and plot, and forces me to rewrite and rethink until the book is worthy of shelf space. I'm also thankful to Karen Ball, who acquired this series and helped edit it. Karen has a way of drawing the best out of her authors. Sue Brower has championed me at Zondervan for years. I owe so much of my success to the decisions she's made, and for that I'm very grateful. And thanks to Karwyn Bursma and Bob Hudson, for all they do to get my books into your hands.
