Twilight is an outstanding and dramatic adventure filled with unexpected twists and turns. And young Canadian journalist, Samuel Simpson, is about to find himself right in the middle of it all. Putting his career at the Toronto Star on hold, Samuel joins the U.N. forces now stationed in the war-torn state of New York, in the United States of America.
Although he has visited the US many times searching for good deals on casual shopping trips, he is now searching the small deserted villages and ravished farmlands for the remains of victims of the militia attacks. Terrorist attacks on several major US cities, along with a series of nuclear bombs hidden in suitcases and moved by balloon over strategic locations in airspace, have disrupted electronic communication and devastated one of the most powerful countries in the world. The land of the free, a place people used to run to, is now spotted with ravaged cities that people run away from to search for security, safety, and even food.
One of a team of six UNFORUS members guarded by a US marine, Samuel attempts to keep his mind on his job: documenting war crimes and the trail of destruction that is left behind each new attack. But it is difficult to concentrate on taking pictures and writing notes when there is no safe place to sleep, not enough to eat, and a beautiful teammate who keeps catching his eye and eventually captures his heart.
Award-winning author Brendan DuBois has once again spun a gripping tale of mystery and suspense that will pull you into the story’s grasp and leave you eager for the next thriller to unfold.
Currently living in New Hampshire with his wife, Mona, DuBois continues to create believable characters that come to life gradually throughout each story, expressing the author’s imagination in pen and ink.
