[Dark Vanishings 01] • Dark Vanishings · Post-Apocalyptic Horror Book 1

**Empty streets. Neighborhoods vanished. The world is a tomb. **

Tori awakens to find herself alone in her town. Her parents are missing. Perhaps they were kidnapped. Murdered. Or worse.

**And now the evils ones are coming for her.**

Running from those who would murder her, Tori flees with a strange boy who seems to know her. Together, they drive south along the east coast and search for humankind.

**But the road is full of hidden dangers -- death watches them from every shadow.**

An evil man appears in Tori's hometown in New York, flanked by wolf-like creatures with glowing eyes. Hours later, he appears in Virginia, still searching for the fleeing girl. The survivors he locates will serve his dark purpose. He won't stop until he finds Tori.

Now a secret power awakens inside Tori, a weapon which might save what little remains of the world. Will she embrace her power?
