✦ Synopsis

Within minutes of the Yellowstone Caldera's massive eruption, thick ash begins to fall across North America, blotting out the sun. Facing disaster and uncertainty, many panic. Some take their own lives, while others see opportunity for mayhem. And some, like survival prepper John Anderson, calmly take the necessary steps to protect their families.

Lamp Black continues the tense, haunting story of disaster and recovery begun in Kenneth Cary's first novel, Curtain Fall. As the ash deepens, John will make decisions affecting the lives of his family and friends. Who does he help? Who can he trust? What is the source of the prophetic visions haunting him, and can he trust in what they foretell?

As society dissolves into anarchy, John and his little survival group face what preppers have long suspected: in the aftermath of a disaster, it's people who pose the real threat.

About the Author

Kenneth Cary is a decorated army officer who served at home and abroad for twenty-two years. His experience in troubled regions gave him valuable insight into how people react to survival situations.

Now a private disaster preparedness consultant, Kenneth impresses the importance of personal and family preparedness. In doing so, he realized the best way to communicate the need for preparation was through narrative.

A fan of post-apocalyptic disaster fiction, Ken has read almost everything the genre has to offer, but the decision to write his stories grew out of his private consultations. He hopes his experience and knowledge will help more people prepare for and survive major disasters, both natural and man-made.
