Story
As a prepper, Grayson Rowan was prepared for almost anything...anything other than being totally alone when the sh*t hits the fan. While he sat back and watched the US rattle swords with Korea, play chicken with Russia, and strong-arm China, he felt sure if the lights went out that he and his family would be ready and safe. What he wasn't prepared for was his family not being home if it ever happened. Olivia Rowan is with her sisters, Gabby and Emma, on a girls-only trip to Myrtle Beach. Graysie Rowan, a freshman at university, just wants to go home.

This new stand-alone survival thriller thrusts the most dynamic city on Earth, New York, into darkness as North America is bludgeoned by the sun's ferocity.

For three days, New Yorkers took to the streets, parks, and rooftops to enjoy the awe-inspiring spectacle. As the power grid failed, the city of New York collapsed with remarkable speed. The thin veneer of civilization was laid bare as man fought one another for survival.

Joe Buck is on a collision course with a life-altering event. He’ll need to rely on his skills to survive the catastrophic EMP about to unfold as he’s working behind the scenes at his blue collar job at the Super Bowl. Breakout country singer and small-town girl Lexi Carter is on the same trajectory. She has just finished singing a well-received rendition of the National Anthem at the Super Bowl. The crowd is raucous. The performances were meticulously rehearsed, finely tuned down to the second, and should have gone off without a hitch. Except for one surprise glitch: an EMP.

Publisher's Summary
When America is hit with a pandemic - soon finding out it was a viral and biochemical attack from terrorists - the population is both shocked and relieved to quickly have a vaccine on hand to save them. Untested and rushed to market, the people don’t care. In droves they line up, hoping to avoid the deadly virus.
But when a new variant strikes the vaxxed population, chaos and mayhem soon follow. Too late, they discover there is something much worse than the virus unleashed on the United States; something so hideous and terrifying, it will make the virus look like a bad case of the flu.
Lilly and Pepper are twins. While Pepper, an Atlanta police officer, tries to hold the blue line in a world gone mad, Lilly, a deaf Medical Research Assistant at the CDC, struggles through the apocalypse - along with her best friend, Bo, and her dog, Moses - in search of her son. Together, they’ll have to part the red sea of death and find safety and deliverance from the evil that has pervaded America.
DISCLAIMER: The book contains a few wordy-dirds, mostly in Chapter 36, Grandpa’s Last Stand, the content of which may trigger veterans with PTSD. The language is essential for this chapter, especially.

Starts out ok then turns into a dog’s view.
Mother & friend looking for son in the apocalypse. Sister looking for the Mother. Both own dogs. Blip here and there of dogs’ view. Then suddenly several chapters on dog running off trying to find the boy. As if the author got tired of the people’s tale. Dog finds boy, no story his mother and friend found the lost boy. Nit my cup of tea.

This book is a great start to what I'm sure will be another great series by the author. I'm a huge fan of the post-apocalyptic genre and this book will not disappoint. I'm normally not a big "zombies" fan but I found myself unable to stop listening to this one. The characters are easy to fall in love with and Kevin Pierce does an awesome job narrating as always!

Lisa (LL) Akers also wrote the Let Me Go series and the SHTF series. All are awesome including this long awaited jewel! I saw a review about the second part of Signs of Life Book 1 is thru a dog's eyes. Part of it is but not even nearly half and it adds to the story in my opinion. Good job to both of the authors and of course narration by our Kevin Pierce tops it off ! Enjoy!!

This popped my Mover and Shaker cherry!
I am a voracious post apocalyptic genre reader who has not once bought nor finished a book having anything to do with a Zombie type character. I purchased this book before even reading the description because this author is a favorite.
Once I started the book, I paused because of my concern for some of the main characters. I am one of those readers that is prey intense and gets all emotionally invested in really well developed characters. The twin aspect intrigued me, one being deaf only enthralled me more. Including a K-9 officer and other animals had me pacing and flipping pages at an alarming rate. I couldn’t not pick it back up. The Veteran scene had me bawling my eyes out and then walking into work looking like someone I loved died.
This book grabbed me (albeit reluctantly) by the throat and sank it’s teeth into me until I sat in my car IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE in a freezing car just so I could finish it uninterrupted! I bought both the kindle version as well as the Audible because I also have a voice crush on Kevin Pierce (the narrator)!
Read it, listen to it and commiserate with me until book 2 releases! Yes, it is THAT good! Well done LLAKERS! Well done! I’m not sure I’ll read another zombie-esque book but this one DID NOT disappoint!

It’s not about the zombies; it’s about courage, perseverance, love, joy, dogs, mistakes, and survival. I can’t wait for the next one! Kevin Pierce’s narration is perfect! He has a voice for each person, 2 dogs, coyotes, squirrels, and a cat! Kevin’s talents make a great story into a fantastic one!

Great story and very well written!
As always L.L. Akers has written a book with a great story line that is so well written that it keeps you pulled into the story. I’m usually not into zombie type post-apocalyptic books but this one was really good and I think a lot of it was because the zombies want the main subject of the book but instead just a hazard. I highly suggest checking this book out.
