Mankind is its own worst enemy.
Nuclear winter has descended upon Flagstaff. With food reserves critical, New River flu spreading uncontrollably, and hundreds dead already, morale is at an all-time low.
The First Platoon of the Flagstaff Militia has been tasked with escorting a routine trading expedition to the nearby Navajo Nation. When the Navajo fail to arrive at the agreed-upon time and place, Jenn and a team of scouts seek to ascertain why. What they discover proves far stranger and more dangerous than anything they could have imagined.
War is coming to Flagstaff, and defeat promises nothing short of annihilation. To protect her family and friends, Jenn will have to confront this new enemy head-on, follow in her brothers' footsteps, and embrace her role as a soldier once and for all.
Night Before Dawn is the fifth book in David Lucin's Desolation series.
