"Notes on the Aftermath" is a gripping, high-stakes story of survival, community, and the moral compromises necessary to rebuild society after the world ends.

The novel opens with an extended family enjoying a joyous Christmas camping vacation in a remote, mountainous valley in north central Pennsylvania. Unbeknownst to them, the world outside collapses. In their sparsely populated sanctuary, they survive the apocalypse and quickly realize their fight for tomorrow has just begun.

Survival, Conflict, and the First 100 Days
"Notes on the Aftermath" thrusts the family into a relentless crucible, forcing them to confront not only the harshness of nature and existential uncertainty but also fierce human enemies. As they forge new alliances and strive to construct a New World in their secluded valley, they are plagued by deep internal moral conflicts.

Their primary threat comes from the remnants of a predatory drug-dealing motorcycle gang, the bloodthirsty Marauders, who seek to dominate the valley. The narrative builds to an explosive climax detailing the first 100 days of the aftermath, culminating in a life-or-death battle between the extended family and the Marauders. Only one group will survive to control the future of the valley.

"Notes on the Aftermath" is a timely and thrilling exploration of what it truly costs to hold onto humanity when civilization has crumbled.
