Far below ground, Greg, Lori, and their group endure a different prison: a shelter of steel and dirt where food dwindles and walls press tighter by the day. Desperation gnaws at them as they prepare to resurface, knowing the quiet above could be safety—or a grave.
In this fractured world, bonds of family and friendship are tested against hunger, secrecy, and fear. Old allies may be gone forever. New alliances form in the shadows. And when the time comes to step beyond the fences and rise from the holes in the earth, no one knows who will remain by their side.
Darkness Volume Four: New Friends, Old Friends, No Friends is a story of captivity and choice, where trust is fragile, freedom is uncertain, and survival demands sacrifice.
Jason R. Cash is the author of the Darkness series and several interconnected thrillers that explore survival, sacrifice, and the ties that bind us when the world unravels. Drawing inspiration from the small towns and landscapes of the Gulf Coast, his stories blend suspense with heart, bringing ordinary people into extraordinary circumstances.
