The Rising Son

As society collapses, one man refuses to let past wrongs define who he is.

Zander Hollis is a wanted man - wanted for murders he didn't commit, wanted for murders he's witnessed, wanted for murders he's capable of committing on behalf of someone else. He just wants to go home and be left alone.

Chasing him are the feds and an extremist group known as the Defenders, two warring factions in this ever chaotic world. And a terrifying wildfire separates him from his family.

With society on the brink of collapse, Zander will have to decide what he values more: his country or his freedom.

Fire on the Mountain is the first book in the visionary climate fiction (cli-fi) series SCORCHED EARTH, a near-future, survival "what-if" that's both mystery and hard-hitting suspense thriller. In this first 4-book series of the CLIMATE COLLAPSE disaster survival sequence, best-selling post-apocalyptic author Saul Tanpepper focuses a story with global implications on a small set of characters struggling to survive as an increasingly devastating weather pattern batters the American Pacific Northwest. But as rapidly accelerating global warming destabilizes the climate, it will trigger a catastrophic cascade that will spread to the rest of the world and bring it to its knees.

This gripping, natural and manmade disaster survival thriller series is for fans of T.L. Payne, Kyla Stone, Ryan Schow, Grace Hamilton, Frank Horton, and A. American.
