The Burst

One supernova. Ten survivors for miles. One psychopath, and zero rescue.Laney has always been the underdog at her high school, and that's even more true after losing one parent and being left on her own by the other. But when the supernova hits, destroying power grids, igniting wildfires, and bathing the surface in lethal radiation, that changes.

She and her fellow students only survive because they're visiting an underground facility.

Now, Laney is one of ten survivors in the Arizona desert, and it's up to her to work with her fellow students. And if they can reach the East Coast, she might even find her father alive.

It won't be easy. Almost nothing works. And as supplies run low, tempers rise.

But when the most popular guy in town seizes control and turns out to be a cunning psychopath, everyone on his bad side is in danger. And he has the spotlight on Laney and anyone who dares to stand by her side.

But Laney's not getting pushed into the shadows anymore. Unlike her enemy, she knows how to get through the end of the world.

Previously published as The Pulse by Holly Hook. This novel and series have been extensively rewritten, with major changes coming to Books 2 and 3 of the Barren Trilogy. The Burst is a young adult apocalyptic novel and survival thriller and is the first book of the Barren Trilogy.
