A young man with a terrible secret buried deep in his chest staggers through what remains of the American South. The destruction is total-the landscape scrubbed bare by the fires of the Reset. The sun rarely penetrates the daily ash storms, and the last of the Earth's plants and animals are slowly dying out.And yet, there are survivors. Benjamin Stone is one of them, and he's searching for the only person who can share his pain, another who was biologically altered at birth to become a weapon capable of bringing the world to its knees. Outside of the few supplies that sustain him in his search for a new life, he has nothing.Nothing but a will to survive and the desire to find someplace safe-someplace better. The Reset is a story of perseverance. It examines a future in which fragmentation and devolution have decimated society, and in which terrorism represents the final desperate attempt at shuffling the deck. With thematic elements similar to Stephen King's The Stand and Cormac McCarthy's The Road, it's a post-apocalyptic story about the survivors of humanity's cruelest intentions, and their essential impulse to rebuild.

The Reset

All they wanted was a vacation to the Grand Canyon. Instead, they found themselves on a collision course with a terrible, timeless darkness.Welcome to Adrienne, home to history's worst serial killers and mass murderers. Nestled in an isolated meadow high in the Sierra Nevada, Adrienne is sort of like a cosmic lint trap. It collects the universe's negative energy-all of our blackest human impulses-before purging that darkness back into the world in a yearly lottery. From Hitler to Bin Laden...Bundy to Gacy, Adrienne is the way station for dark energy that doesn't just pass on-it passes through.When Phil Benson decides to take an unmarked detour over the mountain, he drives his family into the mouth of madness, where they are forced to join a captive labor pool with little hope for freedom. Escape is pointless and time stretches out into eternity, with every new day the same as the last.Sometimes, it's better just to skip the shortcut.With echoes of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery," Stephen King's Needful Things, and Blake Crouch's Pines series, Cold on the Mountain treads the boundary between horror and supernatural suspense.
