When the Sky Broke

The night the sky turns violet, the world doesn't merely end-it mutates.

On a family farm outside Vernon, New York, Silas Thorne senses trouble before anyone else. His prosthetic leg screams with phantom pain. Birds flee. Radios die. Then meteors ignite the horizon, earthquakes destroy the roads, and ash buries the sun.

With civilization collapsing beyond their fences, Silas and his family take refuge in a reinforced greenhouse. Their shelter holds precious water, livestock, and Mama Gale's heirloom seeds-perhaps humanity's last chance to grow food in a poisoned world.

But survival demands more than enduring hunger and an endless impact winter. Black rain kills the soil. A mysterious meteorite pulses beneath the farm. Desperate strangers gather at the gate, while the fanatical Scorched circle closer, determined to seize the land and the power hidden below it.

As fear and suspicion begin fracturing the survivors from within, the Thornes must decide what they are willing to sacrifice-and who they can still trust.

When the sky breaks, home becomes a fortress. Family becomes the last law. And hope may be the most dangerous thing left alive.

When the Sky Broke is an emotional post-apocalyptic survival novel filled with danger, loss, family loyalty, and the fierce human determination to plant something for tomorrow.
