Back of the book:
After living in a shelter during a nuclear attack on
the Unites States, the Cochran family emerges from the shelter at Papa’s Farm
and struggle to get back on their feet.
Alisha Cochran, one of the main characters, narrates
the story bringing you through the hardships the family experiences while
trying to return to a normal way of life.
As they try to rebuild their farm, they go through
dealing with a new government that is taking away all their liberties and
freedoms, including the right to bear arms and the freedom of speech.
Prologue
My name is Alisha
Cochran. I am the wife to Richard; the
mother of Melissa, Jennifer,
and Alex; and the sister to James, Karen, Michael, Keith, and Susan.
Before the war, my brother James
tried to warn all of us that the end of the world was coming. James and my sister, Karen, have always been
great readers and followers of the Bible.
They have been Born Again Christians their entire adult lives. They accept Jesus Christ as their personal
savior and feel their purpose is to spread His word and the fulfillment of
God. James and Karen were certain God had
decided enough was enough and Armageddon was upon us. I, too, believe in Jesus Christ and that
he is my savior. However, I do not
openly preach the Bible or His word as they do. I have my beliefs and I know that God is my
great protector. I do not believe, as my
brother and sister do, that this war was a warning from God, that we are living
in the end times. I believe this was the
work of the devil. The devil overcame
the leaders in the Middle East. Those
leaders tried to force the hand of God, to try to force the end of the
world. But it didn’t work. God has not forsaken us as some believe. The devil’s hand was to destroy us; God’s
hand was to save and protect us.
But, James and Karen believe the
Rapture has occurred and we were left on this Earth to save those who have been
left behind. They are certain that the
Anti-Christ is living among us. They are
waiting for the end days.
good job Mom, looking forward to reading it :)
