Eco-terrorists have used electromagnetic pulses to knock out all power across the globe. Matt Blaine must get his family out of the city before it turns into a war zone, and to their destination, a farm 180 miles away. Their journey is fraught with danger: thieves, snipers, and a vicious gang of thugs called the Renegades. On the way to their safe haven, the Blaine family adds a few more people to their group: a teacher, a former soldier-of-fortune, a tomahawk-throwing physical therapist, and a runaway. Dodging bullets and bandits, Blaine and Company are helped by some, and pay it forward by helping others. The question on everyone's mind is, Will everybody make it, and will they make it in one piece? Travel with the Blaines as they struggle against the odds in The Journey.
